Day 6 of SGSAH's 10 on 10: Researchers on Research series 📚
Today's video comes from our own Resident Blogger @strutzenbladh (@sgsahblog) who shows us some of her fav medieval women's signatures held at @aberdeenuni 📜
Come back tomorrow for our next researcher spotlight🎄
Check out my latest blog for @womenslibrary! I talk about the 'invisible women' in our research and what I think we can do about it! https://t.co/arMO8pQax7
I’m doing my tarot readings based on the lives of medieval women at this [now sold out!] event in Glasgow tomorrow. My lifelong dream of becoming a researcher witch is coming true 🔮😇
🎃 Come along to #CinemARC on 30 October for a free Halloween screening of the cult classic film The Witches and talks from @UofGCulture researchers on the darker side of cinema!

Knowledge production is still shaped by inequality. It’s vital that we listen to those with first-hand experience of this. Joyce Fungo writes on the @sgsah blog about her move to Scotland from the Philippines and how material conditions shape research:

My 5 Medieval Aberdeen stories are snapshots of lives, inspired by objects owned by women. I wrote them with the mentorship of @forthygreatpain, whose own work has so elegantly represented medieval women’s voices in fiction.
My stories on display here:

I wrote a piece on my recent @sgsah internship. Hoping my experience will inspire others who are thinking about creative ways to communicate their research ✨
I wrote about my experience with parent loss during my PhD for the SGSAH blog… huge thanks to the wonderful @strutzenbladh for being such a kind editor and giving me the chance to talk about a taboo subject!
@strutzenbladh@sgsah I'm still feeling empowered by the Mother Earth - watch out world! (Although apparently I'll just Negotiate and potentially mull on my beautiful Tapestry)
Thanks to everyone who read my stories and asked for tarot readings at the @sgsah showcase on Thursday. And to those who were promised an amazing 2025 based on the kind of medieval woman they are, all I can say is: the cards don’t lie 🃏 🔮
Tomorrow at the @sgsah anniversary, I’ll be at a table telling people’s fortunes with tarot cards inspired by my research. Is your destiny that of a medieval heiress, midwife, or brewster? Find me and find out 🔮

#Gaelic should be visible in Scottish academia. In this week’s @sgsah blog post, Ceit Langhorne from @SabhalMorOstaig invites us to the world of her thesis, entirely written in Gaelic, and Scotland’s heroic tales:

This week, new resident blogger Ebba introduces you to her life as a researcher, reveals what song she’s been listening to to get hyped about punctuation, and hints at some of the topics that will be dealt with by upcoming guest bloggers: https://t.co/VZ5RobVRnh
So excited to be a part of this issue! My short story is based on material I came across in my PhD research that established the age of a young Aberdonian heiress. I tried to imagine a day in her life and this is what came of it:
Our new Featured Researcher is Ebba Strutzenbladh ✨ (@strutzenbladh) based @AberdeenHistory with her #PhD project titled: Women, Law and Landed Networks in the North-East of Scotland, c.1450–c. 1560. To find out more about Ebba's research, head over to: https://t.co/7TATgpLEKm
