Mothers & fathers and gendered society in our 19thC children's books is explored in our new #OpenAccess paper with @MichaMahlberg

[Dr Anna Cermakova @AnnCerm]

Our new paper with @MichaMahlberg is out in 'English Text Construction'. Based on our research in @GlareProject we look at the way how society is gendered in 19thC children's books (many classics), see the thread below #OpenAccess

There were tears from the teachers in the audience listening to @ManjeetMann when accepting her @The_UKLA award. “School was a safe place. Teachers took me in and showed me kindness. Even if the child doesn’t say thank you. The adult will wish they could.”

The BBC has decided not to broadcast an episode of David Attenborough’s flagship new series on British wildlife because of fears its themes of the destruction of nature would risk a backlash from Tory politicians and the rightwing press https://t.co/qY2ZwZS90q

Why girls don't do maths...

[Prof Michaela Mahlberg @MichaMahlberg]

I loved physics at school and utterly enjoyed doing a maths degree at @UniBonn. The problem is people trying to tell girls what they'd like. I was told at school maths wasn't really my thing. Luckily I didn't give a toss @nicola_quantum @MASieghart

[Dr Anna Cermakova @AnnCerm]

From Love Island to politicians, I investigate why online abuse targeting women - including me - is getting worse for BBC Panorama.

I reveal how social media promotes anti-women hate to trolls - and ask why more isn’t done to protect us.
