Today, I wanted to look something up in one of the catalogues of the Mazarine. I was rather surprised to encounter some sort of manga (?) situation for the anti-bot firewall screen they've installed. Want to check for yourself? mazarinades.bibliotheque-mazarine.fr #bookhistory #earlymodern

Today, Sid and I are attempting a recipe for “roy marmelaede” with quinces from the Antwerp Annunciates’ recipe book (first half 17th century, with some later additions - @kbrbe.bsky.social). Quite curious as to how this will go (1/?) #earlyModern #bookhistory #womenshistory #foodhistory

On the 19th of December, @jarrikvanderbiest.bsky.social, Claire Morrison and I are organizing a @lectio-institute.bsky.social workshop on gender, religion and the early modern university. Please spread broadly! More info & registration: www.kuleuven.be/lectio/event...
