With Merchants of Medicines I sought to write a new history of the British empire in the long eighteenth century emphasizing the centrality of medicines to extractive projects, bound labor, long-distance commerce, and manufacturing. Below, a thread of some arguments:


Including a high praise for Smoke Bellow's new album. Smoke Bellow are a favorite of mine, and I'm sad to see the project come to an end. But they go out on a high note!

Giving away some compact discs and talkin’ modern prog and post punk in this week’s Ambient Audiophile.

I've got a paleography question for anyone still out there. These four words came up in two wills from the 1770s in the section referring to the property of the deceased. Any ideas as to what they are?

We definitely get into the "beyond" part, check it out!

To those historians remaining on this platform: I'm looking for the full text of the 1875 San Francisco Opium Den Ordinance for my class on the history of drugs. Does anyone have it or have a lead where I can find it? Many thanks!


Another bit of new work out there today on the @FolgerResearch's Collation Blog. I'm thinking about the many contested definitions of care across 18th-c institutions. folger.edu/blogs/collatio…


Very grateful for a fellowship from the Folger Shakespeare Library that is enabling some research on my next book this spring! I'm excited to start putting some of this research on care work out into the world.

Defining science as work & linking it to other forms of labor puts the politics back in its history. For details see our Dec. special issue, co-edited by Lissa Roberts, @sethrockman & Alix Hui. @hssonline @BSHSNews @SocHistTech journals.sagepub.com/toc/HOS/current


this was a great collaboration -- glad to think about the archive of science as labor alongside Duygu and others

Really grateful to be part of the project! All the posts on @MMoR_KCL do such important pedagogical and analytical work.

So happy to see @ZPDorner’s post live on our blog- a consideration of pharmacy as both a material of racialising, and a practice on enslaved bodies.
