Das ist ein wirklich tolles Buch über Heterosexualität als erstaunlich junges Konzept und warum gerade Frauen darin so investiert sind und wie das passiert (ist). Ich bin nicht ganz überzeugt vom Schlusskapitel, aber ich mag den Optimismus darin. Ward ist auch ein super Beispiel dafür, wie man über das Komplizentum von Frauen im Patriarchat schreiben kann ohne selbst ungerecht und misogyn zu werden. @bookstodon @lgbtqia #queer #heterosexuality

#Kirchengeschichte ist ja voll von ... ähm .... interessanten Persönlichkeiten. In der @eulemagazin gibt es seit einiger Zeit eine Reihe zu außergewöhnlichen protestantischen Figuren. Der von heute, Adam Neuser, hat wirklich eine ganz wilde Biographie: Häresie, Hochverrat, Flucht, Apostasie, Spionage für Hohe Pforte und Kaiser. Es wird einem ganz schwindelig.

I'm a big fan of Isabel Waidner and have read all of her #novels (which makes them the only contemporary writer I've read ALL the books ;). This is my take on their latest novel: Corey Fa Does Social Mobility.

I love Anthony Grafton for his love for the epistemologically & morally grey figures and areas between #science & #forgery & #believe that emerge when the new gets to be born. Here he talks very accessibly about his new book about such a seminal figure in #westernhistory : the Magus. (With expert slurs to modern #economics.) #culturalhistory #historyofscience @histodons https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/the-magus-enlightened-magician-or-renaissance-charlatan/id256580326?i=1000653614822

#EarlyModern #History needs your help! Bartmann / Bellarmine jugs were made in a very specific region of the rhineland between 1500 -1750 to be exported to England & the Netherlands. With colonial expansion they've found there way across the globe. Now an international research projects seeks to establish a comprehensive history & typology of the jugs. So if you have seen one of those shown in the Wanted Foto attached, get in touch with the researchers!

Heute startet der #transrightsreadathon 2024: Bücher von trans & nicht-cis Autor*innen lesen und an trans -Orgas spenden ist die Aufgabe, für die, die aktiv von heute bis nächste Woche Samstag mitmachen. Ich werde vermutlich nicht so wirklich was weg gelesen kriegen, aber die Ressourcen, die hier gesammelt sind, um TBRs zu entcissen, sind super. Ich werde davon auf jeden Fall Bücher lesen, wenn vielleicht auch nicht diese Woche.

Ich mag die seltsame, beckett-eske Atmosphäre des Romans, das Thema ist sehr spannend (#Ausgrabung von #Babylon und #Wilhelminismus), aber ich denke, die Autorin hat dem Ganzen bissle zu viel aufgebürdet.

This is a really thought provoking essay on how queerness is integrated into heterosexuality as existing #Power structure via romance plots.
"(..) rather than to the wider, more subversive, deconstructionist possibilities that come with deliberately refusing (or refuting) hetero-patriarchal categories, structures, and relations of power." @litstudies

Very interesting thorough article on the outsize role writers and publishing professionals alike ascribe to #goodreads for the mis/fortunes of a book. I'm not quite convinced by Nicole Brinkley's argument that goodreads has no significant impact on sales numbers (this is #Amazon, there's no way they're running it purely for some nebulous market insights, imo), but most of her other arguments I find quite compelling.

Meine Meinung zu Dillingers historischer Einführung zu #Hexerei und #Magie ist ambivalent. Ich habe aus dem Buch extrem viel gelernt, auch was die unterschiedlichen Forschungsansätze in dem Bereich angeht, aber es ist halt auch in vielen Aspekten ein sehr deutsches akademisches Buch und das ist nicht als Kompliment gemeint.

#Today, 150 years ago, Lola Ridge was born in Dublin. She was to become a modernist #poet, a leading figure in the #modernist movement in #NewYork , a very prominent #anarchist #activist and campaigner für women's rights, the rights of immigrants and the poor. Lola Ridge has had a small renaissance since her biography came out 2016, but she could be read more widely.

I realised that most of the books or stories I really enjoyed this year could be categorised with the #Cozy hashtag , but I don't (didn't?) see myself as a cozy #genre reader (one of my fave book is Gravity's Rainbow). So I wondered what is going on and started to read up on the definition of cozy #genre. This blog post I found especially helpful, because of the nuanced discussion of the low/high stakes dynamics.

I still haven’t read Lolly Willowes, which is a shame, I know, but this review essay on the novel and a new biography on Valentine Ackland, Townsend Warner’s partner, brought it back to my tbr pile.

I’m still awfully lagging behind my @lrb pile, but being a little bit out of synch with the news these days isn’t that bad, Anyway, a good review essay probably profits if one doesn’t read it to be in the loop.

„The kidneys (grilled over a clear fire) lay on top of thick slices of bacon, surrounded by fried potatoes, golden brown and sizzling. The bacon was farm bacon (…) Gilbert fell to and enjoyed his supper; the grill, followed by apple tart, and the apple tart by home-made cheese.“ — I would love to read a novel full of food descriptions like that .Any #suggestions?

I’ve started to read the new @UncannyMagazine issue, and it really starts with a bang, @Catvalente “Can You Hear Me Now?” This is such a great story about Consumerist culture and feminity as performance. And it’s really scary and the neediness of the voice speaking really sucks you into the void.
You can read it here, but I recommend to buy the whole issue.

Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead, Olga Tokarczuk

Deacon King Kong, James McBride
