@wit09udt Hi Diana, I have not written specifically on obscenity laws, or any other revolutionary laws. I have written about extreme pamphlet attacks on Marie-Antoinette and royal mistresses (and by emigres on Napoleon) and can direct you towards them if you email me @ western sydney uni.

@SBurrowsFBTEE hello im trying to read an article you wrote on obscenity and laws during the revolution but I can’t seem to find it

@FrenchProfessor Raise you 6 years and a beach with kangaroos. Glad you came.

Celebrating six years of living in Australia

@Rebekah_Reads Congratulations, Rebekah. Fabulous achievement.

PhDONE!

Workload models in universities are unsustainable, leaving "academics feeling squeezed from all directions." @agatamontoya, Maggie Nolan and I explore this issue in the final edition of Australian Universities’ Review (@NTEUnion). shorturl.at/AfFWO @ASAustLit @auheorg

Excited to see my name in print today with @SBurrowsFBTEE for our co-authored chapter! We wrote about a BA unit at @westernsydneyu for a new collection entitled 'Innovations in Teaching History'

Today’s highlight - receiving my comp. copy of “Innovations in teaching history”, featuring a chapter I co-wrote with @Rebekah_Reads. Even more exciting than the Olympics!

@EHChalus Congratulations, Elaine. Seems like no time since we were all working on the D.Phils. Enjoy the time to pursue your passions.

Last day of teaching today. Started teaching high school full time in 1977. I was 18 months older than my oldest Grade 12 students. I will miss the students next year (but not the marking!) #timetowrite

Utterly depressing news

Can't wait for this! Oxford here I come. Will be talking about Enlightenment spatial data, but also about projects vs. infrastructure in 18th c. France & in DH!

What better way to start a #feelgoodFriday than with the announcement of some of our #BSECS 2024 Award Winners. As ever, the quality of all the submissions was incredible. #18thC #twitterstorians

Excited this is nearing completion. Glad to have contributed.

Wow 12!! Incredible! Time to get your applications in all Lecturer/Senior Lecturers!!

@ADHOrg  is proud to announce that @susanirenebrown has been awarded the Roberto Busa Prize in recognition of her outstanding achievement in DH research. We look forward to celebrating Professor Brown's accomplishments and her talk at DH2024 in August! adho.org/2024/02/21/sus…

@FrenchProfessor @ABCaustralia Have listened now - great stuff.
