I knew y’all would deliver. But DANG did y’all DELIVER. 🥹 This is one heck of a reading list, for my class, for me (about 1/2 of these are new to me! yay!), and for anyone interested in the history of disease! #HistMed

Teaching a course this fall on contagion in history (pandemics, epidemics, understanding how people understood how disease spread, etc) this fall. Super excited about this one. Any recommendations for accessible, engaging, and/or fun sources for first semester freshmen? #histmed #skystorians

Thomas Kuhn was born OTD in 1922. Historicity—over revolutions and paradigms—was core to his thought. “History, if viewed as a repository for more than anecdote or chronology, could produce a decisive transformation in the image of science by which we are now possessed.” 🧠🗃️ #HistSTM #PhilSci 🦋🦫
Caricature of Kuhn by David Levine for The New York Review of Books.

We have four 19th century birthdays to celebrate today! Medical missionary Clara Swain (b. 1934), Indian medical pioneer Kadambini Ganguly (b. 1861), Wellesley math legend Mabel Minerva Young (b. 1872), and South African botanist Augusta Duthie (b. 1881) were all born OTD! #WomenInSTEM #HistSci 🧪⚕️

Little dragons love inhabiting initials of medieval manuscripts. However, this one just found his book is about pee. Opening of Isaac Israeli, Book of Urines, translated by Constantine the African, in Erfurt/Gotha MS Amplonian Q 207: "Incipit liber urinarum Ysahac" #medhist #histmed #manuscript
A long and tall stylized dragon inhabiting an initial "I" in a medieval manuscript. It is tan with blue head, wings, and feet, on a gold leaf background. He looks displeased at his presence in the book.
Gorgeous opening page of a text in a thirteenth-century medieval manuscript of Isaac Israeli's Liber Urinarum, or Book of Urines. The opening initial is in gold leaf, with a dragon inside the letter, and the rest of the opening title is in large, oddly scattered letters in alternating red and blue. At the bottom of the page is a stylized comet in red and blue extending from the letter "U" at the start of the first chapter.

I just learned that Samuel Hahnemann wrote four dissertations. I suspect they were increasingly diluted. #HistMed #DadJokes

ICYMI: "There are no monsters, and all of them are real." I spoke with @kawulf.bsky.social, director of the @jcblibrary.bsky.social Library, about, HUMANS: A MONSTROUS HISTORY. The recording: 1/2 💙📚 🗃 #earlymodern #histsci #histmed #monsters #politics #HAMH www.youtube.com/watch?v=z….
Screenshot of a YouTube channel showing a black PowerPoint screen with six vivid images on it. Top-left to bottom right: a painting eight figures, most of them of African descent, posing on three levels; painting of a girl with a hairy face holding up a sheet of paper; a museum shot of an entryway with "bones and mummies" on it and a dinosaur image above it; a round, diagrammatic map, a print of a naked woman riding backwards on a hoofed mammal; and a print of a monster standing on its hind legs: vaguely humanoid, with a donkey's head. At the top right is the small icon of the speaker: a dark-haired woman wearing a blue and yellow top. Along the lower part of the screen: JCB Reads: Surekha Davies on Humans: A Monstrous History.
