@LeahIsWild @ashleyelance It's historical in its focus (mostly late 18th C France) but Sophia Rosenfeld's A Revolution in Language is basically an entire book about philosophy, pedagogy and politics intermingling on the topic of sign language. Worth a read even if your own interests are contemporary!

“Playing the Clown” by me! Is now live on @eidolon_journal ! Ever wondered what a Classicist thinks of Boris Johnson's rhetoric and 'cute' habit of quoting ancient Greek poetry? This piece contains the answers (and raises a few questions of its own) https://t.co/LsKQ91obAj

As ever, if someone's telling you the only way anyone ever got reform is by asking politely, the whole story isn't getting told... #Peterloo2019

[Eoin Carter @Eoin_Carter]

Really heartening to see so many people turning out for events commemorating #Peterloo2019 — here are some thoughts on the coverage so far.

[Eoin Carter @Eoin_Carter]

Over the next few months I'll be posting snippets from these and other works to try and give a sense of what radical political life was actually like #AfterPeterloo.
