- Reposted by Nick MunnLetter to the FT that stingingly sums up Brexit and the shit creek we now find ourselves in. A terrible idea (naive, prejudiced and uninformed) that has deeply divided us and left us poorer and less secure… but unwilling to face up to the damage we’ve done to ourselves. While the EU moves on.
- This has been out a while now, but very happy to have written a short blog post for @lampallib.bsky.social as part of my recent placement. I delve into the interesting workings of Henry Wharton and what his choice of medieval transcription may tell us about his own lifetime... monumentoffame.org
- I'm a bit late to the party, but very happy to see the Constructing Masculinities sessions accepted. Looking forward to a day of fantastic new research on #premodern #masculinities @imc-leeds.bsky.social #IMC2026
- Reposted by Nick MunnLooking forward to rocking up at #imc2026 to talk about all the fun (and surprising!) things you can find in the wills of single men across early modern England, alongside other fascinating talks on fatherhood, masculinity, and emotions on the Constructing Masculinities Panel.
- Reposted by Nick MunnThe UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

- Reposted by Nick MunnWhat's effectively happening here (in the British media at large, too) is the construction of "anti-racism" as somehow a "political alternative" to racism, rather than as a minimal civilisational standard, which in turn (further) vindicates racism as *also* an acceptable political position.

- Reposted by Nick MunnOur medieval curator Alison Ray introduces Rawlinson Bodleian Library MS. Rawl. D. 252...a 15th Century necromancer's journal. This manuscript contains spells written in Latin and Middle English, and would have served as a reference for a professional sorcerer. #MedievalMonday
- Reposted by Nick MunnIt's clear to everyone the BBC is giving Nigel Farage and Reform far too much coverage. It is dangerous and it has to stop.
