Dear readers,
I realized lately when doing some maintenance to this blog that my monthly blogroll series hasn’t exactly colored in the lines that I first drew for it. It has in so far as these are lists of things I like on a theme, but rarely have they been actual blogs. I did a Tumblr edition and a Foodie edition, but of the nineteen I’ve done thus far, that has been it. It seems relevant considering that I am on a train to Austin for the first inaugural Blackfriars X Southwest conference that I give you a true list of blogs by academics working on early modern English literature and culture.
- Claire M.L. Bourne, Of Pilcrows
- Lindsey Fitzharris, The Chirurgeon’s Apprentice
- Laura Forsberg, Miniature Book Blog
- John Gallagher, Early Modern John: History Written Cheap
- Brett Greatley-Hirsch, Not without mustard
- Matthew Harrison, Thrumpledum Thrum
- Adam G. Hooks, Anchora
- Andrew S. Keener, Vade Mecum
- Emer McHugh, letters from a patchwork wizard
- Steve Mentz, The Bookfish: Thalassology, Shakespeare, and Swimming
- Holger Schott Syme, Dispositio: Mostly Theatre, Then and Now, There and Here
- Garrett A. Sullivan, occasional thoughts on sleep
- Ted Underwood, The Stone and the Shell
- Sarah Werner, Wynken de Worde
The following are not blogs per se, but they are lovely examples of how to do a professional portfolio in the field:
- Jeffrey J. Cohen, portfolio
- Megan Heffernan, portfolio
- Diane Jakacki, portfolio
- James J. Marino, portfolio
- Alaina Pincus, portfolio
- Misha Teramura, portfolio
- Scott A. Trudel, portfolio
- Erica M. Weaver, portfolio
- Chris Woodworth, portfolio
While some of the blogs included in here are not necessarily early modern, I would very much like to continue to add to this list of compelling ways to curate an online presence for scholars. Please do send any you find my way!
Best,
Elizabeth
