And on the train of the German #bahn, everyone seems content that today's delay, due to a disruption near Fürth, is only half an hour. Travel as an exercise in collective #serendipity.

On my way to Göttingen for a #milhist workshop, asking whether "The best learners will be victorious," addressing adaptation, creativity, and knowledge transfer in global military history, 1600-1900. Looking forward to a great program!

Really enjoyed giving my first lecture of the introduction to early modern history today. What a lovely and lively class I have got! They actually identified all but one of Stradanus' Nova Reperta:

Thanks to the lovely colleagues in #Basel who invited me to present my research at their premodern #history colloquium last night! I thoroughly enjoyed it and got a great #view from my cozy historic hotel room.

Thanks! Indeed, the combination of local and cultural history is extremely important. I am trying to let students grasp this (pun intended) through some of the objects and stories I present.

Which aspect of her numerous works did you like most?

Preparing to introduce students to #earlymodern #history with a new lecture in the fall. I'm planning to introduce each topic through a little interactive reflection on items of material culture (e.g. emergency currency for warfare, a plough for the agricultural economy,...)

What would you have liked to know about the period in your first semester, #histodons?

Boosts and answers welcome!
