They are typically blunt and intense, going to the hea...| Historical Transactions

The Society was very sorry to learn of the death, in July, of the historian Peter J. Marshall (1933-2025). Peter’s association with the Royal Historical Society spanned more than 50 years.

A large sign at the entrance of an ancient Egyptian gallery at the museum warns viewers of mummified human remains enclosed in a sarcophagus in the next room and suggests an alternate route to bypass the “triggering” mummy. It reminds me of trigger warnings; how quick they are to label a story before the reader has a chance to peek in. I actually wanted to see a delicate face wrapped tight in ancient linen, to bear witness to a past where someone was loved enough to be held for eternity.| Reckon Review
Jennifer Bilek has argued on several occasions that the rise of the LGBTQ+ movement is not a rights campaign at all, but a marketing strategy for dismantling the natural way humans reproduce. “Heterosexuality = bad, everything else = good,” she writes, linking this cultural inversion to an industry that packages reproductive technologies as civil rights while reducing the human body to commodities: wombs, eggs, sperm, hormones and, soon, gene-editing (1).

In 2024-25, Eve held a Royal Historical Society Centenary PhD Fellowship....| Historical Transactions
