Thank you all for such a warm reception to my thesis. If anyone wants to discuss my work with me, either for media or privately for a chat, please get in touch. I am keen to develop it into a monograph so any advice on that is welcome! #twitterstorians
My PhD is available open access! It examines anxiety across the lifecycle through the letters of the Canning family 1760-1830. Covers areas of emotions, family, relationships, gender, letters, any stage of the lifecycle, age, communications, the Cannings researchspace.bathspa.ac.uk/…
