81 years after the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, we speak with Havi Dreifuss of Tel Aviv University about the Jewish perspective on the Holocaust in Poland, resistance, and her book on the end of the ghetto.

I have an informational question: are there measures taken to prevent pro Palestine activists from interrupting this event and others? Thanks. @histodons@href
@nadav@jakobwannsee@histodons@href I also have an informational question: are there measures being taken to prevent any of our contemporaries from getting the idea that when an ethnically defined other has been pushed from their homes into a densely populated area surrounded by soldiers, prevented from leaving, and periodically killed en masse, then this justifies resistance?

À Carthagène, vivaient des libertinos: esclaves musulmans. déliés de leur maisonnée, mais travaillant pour payer leur liberté. Thomas Glesener et Daniel Hershenzon démêlent avec finesse les conflits de normativités, entre religion, coutume et autorité royale, pour mieux appréhender l'esclavage.
#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! @histodons
Cultural history class this week includes the bicycle boom of the 1890s.
Newspapers from this period are filled with the complaints of men who say bicycles ruined their marriages, since wives only care to ride and no longer tend to their "duties."
The Rev. Thomas Gregory saw the bike as a threat to his parishioners' intellect and health.
"It annihilates the reading habit. The libraries are deserted. It is a menace to domestic virtues. It breaks up and destroys the home."
Gaetano Salvemini smuggled a copy of the court transcripts of Matteotti's trial out of Italy:
"Per conto mio, già nell'agosto del 1925, avevo trafugato fuori d'Italia una copia della requisitoria del Pubblico Ministero Santoro nella inchiesta senatoriale sulle accuse mosse da Giuseppe Do- nati contro il direttore generale della pubblica sicurezza, generale De Bono. Dopo averli utilizzati affidai quei docu- menti alla biblioteca della School of Economics di Londra, nel dicembre 1926"
The day after there was an unsuccessful attempt to steal the transcripts, but they were kept in the Library's safe.
Very excited that we are now going to be digitising these transcripts and putting them freely available online, 100 years after Matteotti's murder. Hopefully they will be available by end of June this year. Attached is a photograph of them in situ.
📖 How did Portugal react to the International Women's Year celebrated in 1975?
This is the question Giulia Strippoli tries to answer in an article published in the Women's History Review.
Interweaving history, memory, written, visual and oral sources, the IHC historian interprets the legacy of the events during the "Hot Summer" of 1975, both on an individual level and from the perspective of women's organisations.
The details of the lower panels of the Ara Pacis are spectacular. The scrolling patterns of the acanthus foliage first catch the eye, but animals are hidden within and the panels are framed by more floral scrollwork and an intricate meander pattern. Beautiful!
TRUNK. A nose. How fares your old trunk? does your nose still stand fast? an allusion to the proboscis or trunk of an elephant. To shove a trunk: to introduce one's self unasked into any place or company. Trunk-maker like; more noise than work.

Was ist virtuelle Gefangenschaft? Warum kann Freilassung von Nachteil sein? Haft als Vollpension oder Überlebenskampf?

Wie beeinflussen #VectorSpaceModels unsere Wahrnehmung von Ähnlichkeit & unser Verständnis von Ordnung? 🤔
Unter anderem dieser Frage gehen Sebastian Kawanami-Breu (#HUBerlin) & Johan Malmstedt (Umeå University) morgen im #DigitalHistoryOFK aus medienwissenschaftlicher Perspektive auf den Grund und zeichnen zugleich ihre technologische Geschichte nach.
