Doing some late night marking and glad to see one of my students has marked their own work... they believe they deserve a 2:1 in each category πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Hopefully they'll be glad to know I disagree and their work is stronger!

Following from my last post, I thought I should share the subject of the talks that have made me animated! I would also like to thank @swwdtp.bsky.social for all their support during my last couple of presentations!

Anyway, I still have at least 4 talks planned for the rest of the academic year so maybe see some of you there!

Secondly, whilst my presenting mode may be animated, my listening state is a lot more... reserved. I want the record to show I am thinking about questions and trying to take in what is being said and I am most definitely not bored!

First of all, I speak with my hands A LOT! I get so engrossed in my work that I find it hard stand still and follow a script which did lead to a rather comedic throwing of my script on Saturday!

I have been travelling around the UK (and Europe) recently speaking about my research. A couple of observations have been made regarding me...

Day two of the conference complete! With some excellent panels and speakers, day two was completely filled with some amazing papers on Privateering, Methodology, Naval Violence, Representations of Violence on the Stage, and England's relations with her Neighbours in the Late Seventeenth Century.

Conflict, War and Violence in the Early Modern World

University of Exeter, October 30, 2025 - October 31, 2025

Deadline for submission/application: September 5, 2025
Call for Papers

We are exploring early modern conflict in all its forms. We particularly seek to unpack the interactions between the more traditional aspects of conflict, such as the political, tactical and strategic, with the more human side of it, including sociocultural approaches that explore experiences, representations and impacts of violence. As such, we particularly welcome proposals that look beyond purely military history and break chronological, geographical and disciplinary boundaries.

We welcome proposals for individual papers of up to 20 minutes, or full panels of three to four papers, on any aspect of conflict, war and violence in the early modern period.

Speakers might consider, but are not limited to, the following themes:

    β€’ Physical, tactical, operational and strategic aspects of warfare.
    β€’ Martial identities, values and motivations.
    β€’ Notions of gender, race, class and religion.
    β€’ Remembering, (re)imagining and representing violence and/or conflict.
    β€’ The experience of violence, its impact and the everyday at war.
    β€’ Popular allegiance in early modern conflict.
    β€’ Maritime violence and naval warfare.
    β€’ The bureaucracy of conflict, finance and the law.

Abstracts of up to 300 words, along with a biographical note, should be sent to earlymodernwar@gmail.com by Friday 5th September.
