@celestemcnamara.bsky.socialReposted by @eloisedavies.bsky.socialWould you like to learn about the strange and scandalous way some 18th-century Venetians got out of dysfunctional marriages? Read my new article (open access!) about annulments for affinity by fornication!

@eloisedavies.bsky.socialAh thank you! New enough to this I didn’t realise @alanamailes.bsky.social was here - hello Alana!

@eloisedavies.bsky.socialFabulous all round!
@eloisedavies.bsky.socialHow wonderful! I will pass on the happy memory when I see her!
@eloisedavies.bsky.socialA question relating to a later period than we cover here… but one Amy Dunagin may well be able to answer. Here she discusses 17th century Venetian opera as inspiration for operatic culture in early 18th century England (looking at the foundation of the Haymarket opera house, among other things)
@eloisedavies.bsky.socialYes, the very same. And author recently of this excellent book manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526172068/
@harryspillane.bsky.socialReposted by @eloisedavies.bsky.socialHow fitting that my episode on Tyndale with @onthetudortrail.bsky.social arrives on #internationaltranslationday
Tyndale's English New Testament was the first to translate from Greek into English, and his Pentateuch the first from Hebrew into English. Listen to learn more about Tyndale's life...
