A textile archaeology newsletter by a researcher who discusses how preservation bias shapes our view of ancient warfare, including organic armour such as linen and coconut fibre. It also launches a book club reading Elizabeth Wayland Barber's Women's Work and questions the concept of 'women's work' across cultures.
A Substack by historian Rosie Harte exploring the long 19th century through essays on women writers, Gothic and supernatural fiction, and the material culture of authorship. Readers get historically grounded cultural commentary that links Victorian literature to present-day trends.
A history-focused newsletter that revisits contested historical episodes such as Columbus Day and the European witch-hunts, framed with a combative, satirical stance toward right-wing men. Recent issues mix pointed historical argument with a lot of subscription and engagement appeals and some unrelated personal-persona material.
