I am excited to share this call for papers for a special issue on Conceptualizing Disability in History, which I’m co-editing with Monika Baar for the Austrian Journal of Historical Studies. Please share among your networks, we are very much looking forward to your contributions!

What a great day, full of inspiring conversations about positionality, agency, and intimacy in oral history. I learnt a lot from the keynote speakers and the researchers' projects. Thank you so much to @zsofia-v.bsky.social and @georgiakat.bsky.social for organising it.

Happy to share that my article on the impending criminalisation of female homosexuality in Germany before WWI is now available open access. I look at the reasons why women's rights activists didn't publicly protest against it, despite many of them living in intimate relationships with each other.

What a great experience! Had the pleasure to serve as chair/discussant on a fantastic panel on 'Methodological Challenges in Disability History: Conceptualizing Pre- and Early Modern Disability' at the ESSHC in Leiden yesterday.

It was a pleasure to discuss auto/biographical and archival practices and questions of subjectivity with @mboluferp.bsky.social, Mónica Burguera and the researchers yesterday. Thank you for the opportunity!

Our latest OeZG issue on intersectionality is out and open access! Being part of the @oezg-journal.bsky.social editorial team definitely has its perks: I've already read all the articles and know they're great. If you read German, check them out.

Very excited that our 2nd handbook on queer contemporary histories in German speaking Europe is out (and open access)!! I contributed an article on lesbian women with disabilities, how they navigated and represented their experiences in women's and disability rights movements in the 1980s and 90s.
