A change of scenery 🍃 Thrilled to be joining @historyatgalway this new term! So excited to get stuck into some new teaching 🎉 but bittersweet to be leaving the wonderful @UUHistory. Two years went by in a flash✨

@Linda__Connolly @TomHulme87 @academia @MaynoothUni @MU_Sociology Thanks for tagging us Tom! Yes, as Linda says, lots of well established work on diverse family forms by sociologists. In our issue, we're pushing these ideas back as far to the 18th century & forward to the more recent past to stimulate these conversations among historians too.
