The Upside Down: The Year of No Yule – How the Puritans Created Christmas Without Meaning To https://t.co/86JOx8bkUn

Word of every Christmas Day, even this one, is the beautiful ‘confelicity’: joy in the happiness of others.

I hope you get to feel some confelicity today, if only from afar.

Merry Christmas.

Have torn myself away from US election coverage to prepare for a seminar on a sixteenth-century crisis of succession in which a sovereign grimly tried to hold onto power after his demise. History teaches us nothing.

Absolutely BRILLIANT thread, with sources!

The US election is tomorrow.  If you, like me, are tired of horse-race-style reporting, and need to zoom out, I wanna tell you a story. It’s about an ancient force influencing the election. And, as a bonus, it’ll give you an Easter egg to watch for as the returns come in. THREAD

Forget about that election thingamy - my Hatshepsut doc just launched on @HistoryHit! It’s an incredible story of female power & its erasure - pls give this & my Culture of Memory doc a watch! Feat. @KaraCooney, @monznomad & Lucia Gahlin. @RabbitIslandPro

On this day in 1647, in the midst of civil war, the Putney Debates sought a new constitution for Britain – their arguments over the nature of freedom and democracy still resonate today, writes @Jon_Trickett. https://t.co/7gTwJ0VNwP

[Susie Dent @susie_dent]

Etymology of the day: ‘ambition’ is from the Latin ‘ambire’, to ‘go about’. Roman candidates for election would walk the streets canvassing votes in their bid for office. They wore white togas to imply purity and integrity - ‘candidate’ is from ‘candidus’, ‘white’.

It would suit the franchise much better tbh <3
