- @apuddleofmuddle.bsky.social Hi Lisa -- you don't, by some grand stroke of luck, happen to have an electronic copy of Smith's handlist to the archives of the French Protestant Church in London? I'm trying to check things on a tight timeline without access (and am not currently a HS member...)

View full threadAh no problem -- I need to browse so won't put you to that! I think there's access to the HS volumes through the site but am guessing that's read online rather than as PDFs. Should have gotten myself signed up when I planned to!
- oo yes I've logged in for the first time but it looks like Quarto 50 is missing as PDF. Will message you
- No electronic copy - though I am a member of HS society, so I could ask to be sent one? Or if you can wait til tmrw, I'm in the BL where there definitely is a physical copy and can check things for you!
- I always feel fairly "junior" at conferences..still an ECR, still a postdoc - until today when the name of a former undergrad student on a conference programme FLOORED me. The passage of time is harsh and bewildering.
- What a gross insult to everybody who has made their lives here, who cares for the elderly, who teaches the children, who has fallen in love and made homes and friendships and lives and families, and everything in between.
- It's utterly revolting and pitches us towards cruelty.
- As you say, worded so cruelly and grimly!
- I grew up in a household where no-one had Maths GCSE (or equiv), partly bc my parents’ parents didn’t. And I often find the notion of educational capital completely absent from conversations abt (in)equality and social mobility. Absolutely hate the scenario where lack of privilege = disenfranchisemt
