Ich möchte freundlich Werbung machen. Ich kann aber auch nicht an mich halten und will erwähnen, dass ich da anno dazumal über female (visual) cultures vorgetragen habe, lange bevor es cool war. 👵

Bis morgen nehmen wir sehr gerne noch Vorschläge für Workshop-Beiträge zum Reisen, Pilgern, Migrieren und zu anderen Formen der Mobilität in Mittelalter und Früher Neuzeit entgegen. 🙂 Motivierend vielleicht: Es gibt keinen Publikationszwang!

Das dt. Wissenschaftssystem setzt auf künstliche Verknappung von Wertschätzung: Leute kleinhalten. Ihnen suggerieren, nichts zu können. Nahelegen, sie müssten dankbar sein, sogar für miese Bedingungen. So lassen wir uns alles Mögliche gefallen. Deshalb: Lobt einander, was das Zeug hält! #IchBinHanna

Also, today is international #transdayofvisibility! Check out your local event calendar, buy a book to educate yourself or support and amplify the accomplishments of trans people and their knowledge.

Wishing you all a happy #hugamedievalistday ! [Picture detail taken from the Morgan Picture Bible, © Getty Museum, Ms. Ludwig I 6 (83.MA.55). CC0 1.0]
