AN #EARLYMODERN POST!! They still exist! And a lovely one at that, for five years and with the brilliant people at KCL who have turned that place in quite the hub of exciting early modern research. Run, don’t walk.

I had a brilliant set of UG dissertation students last year. One wrote an excellent blog on counterfactual history and the North Berwick witch-hunt: blogs.cardiff.ac.uk/cardiff-supe... Have a read! I think counterfactual history is a tool that #earlymodern #hextag peeps should use more often. 😊
