Editing Anne Southwell, most excellent seventeenth century woman of letters.
New book alert for all historians and literary scholars who care about early modern women: this is a brilliant and engaging look at one “forward woman” and her place in early seventeenth century English culture. New evidence, fresh perspective!

She’s on Bluesky!
Raise up thy faculties my soul, ‘tis time / To wake from idleness the child of death! / Mount to the heavens, and there thy wings sublime, / Where bodies live, not bound to hazard breath.” And thus begin my verses on the first commandment. A.S.

Seeking the biblically literate: “Daughters of Israel, slandered through grudge / Had satisfaction given them by the Judge”. Thanks to anyone who can pin this down to chapter and verse!
