A number of institutions are seeking to preserve the material culture and oral history of last week’s Women’s Marches: the Bishopsgate Institute (London) are collecting placards, signs, and posters made as part of the event, while History Workshop Journal issued a call for contributions for reflections from those who attended.
The following journals, CFPs, and events also caught my eye:
TOC: ABE Journal – Architecture Beyond Europe, Issue 9-10, 2016
Lent term Things that Matter programme
Workshop African Americans and the Making of Early New England
GSA Seminar: Feminist Scholar-Activism and the Politics of Affect
York Summer Theory Institute in Art History 2017
CFA: NEH Summer Institute: Beyond East and West: Exchanges and Interactions across the Early Modern World (1400-1800)
CFP: Journal18 – Coordinates (Spring 2018)
CONF: Early Modern Viewers and Buildings in Motion (Durham, 25 Feb 2017)
CFP: Queer Modernism(s)
CFP: Evidence of Feeling: Law, Science and Emotions in Modern Europe
CFP: Women’s and Gender History Symposium (Urbana-Champaign)
I also enjoyed Will Pooley’s post ‘Write regularly‘, which provided both interesting reflection on, and practical responses to, this oft-heard advice.
Finally, check out Charlotte Mathieson’s fascinating review of the Victorians Decoded: Art and Telegraphy exhibition, on at the Guildhall Art Gallery.
