‘Crusius’s innovation lay not in his methods or his linguistic proficiency, but in the object of his curiosity: no other Western Christian of his time thought to produce such a detailed record of Ottoman Greece.’ Alexander Bevilacqua on the rediscovery of Greece: www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

‘Crusius studied spoken Greek carefully, treating his visitors as crucial primary sources. Yet he regarded modern vernacular Greek as a corrupt version of its classical ancestor.’ Alexander Bevilacqua on the German cleric who invented modern Grecomania: www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

On board (my first ever) Amtrak to Boston to attend #RSA2025 #RenSA25 🚂 @caromurph7.bsky.social & I have organised a panel on "Administrative Cartography" with Lorenzo Gatta, Natsumi Nonaka & @hannahmgk.bsky.social 🗺️ And of course I'll be talking Neptune again with @frederickcrofts.bsky.social 🔱

Ich hatte zwei tolles Tage auf der Konferenz ‘Alchemisches Wissen & praktisches Laborien’ in der Franckeschen Stiftungen. Das Zusammentreffen von Kolleg/innen, die sich mit verschiedenen Aspekten der Alchemie befassen, zeigte das Fruchtbarkeit der Zusammenarbeit. (weiteres Highlight = Wunderkammer!)

What was up with Neptune 400 years ago? @frederickcrofts.bsky.social and I have been trying to find out: we had a great research stay @zikg.eu! While we cross our fingers for the article (under review), you can find out more about the project, and the small exhibition we co-curated, here:

📣Out now on #firstview! Amelia Hutchinson (@ameliahutchinson.bsky.social) (@jesuscollegecam.bsky.social) on 'Subtle Bodies: Networks and Corporeality in Philipp Hainhofer’s Pomeranian Cabinet' #Art #Body #Merchant #Display #Artisan 16thc 17thc 🗃️ 👉Read OA here: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Snapshots from the Alte Pinakothek’s Rachel Ruysch exhibition — up close, the technical precision and inclusion of specimens that created amazing depth in Ruysch’s work was tangible. Brilliantly contextualised, engaging with the work of her father, sister Anna, and sottobosco’s of Van Schriek.

Delighted to share that my new article is now available on FirstView with the HJ. I explore the important role health and the body played in the making of the Pomeranian Art Cabinet. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
