Do you have any references to someone *writing* a petition, c.1500-1770? I've found 40 so far but I'm looking for any more examples you might have!
Not just signing or presenting, but physically 'writing', 'drafting', 'penning' or 'making'. #PowerOfPetitioning #twitterstorians

I am SO RIDICULOUSLY proud that my new intro to Measure for Measure for @OWC_Oxford is out today!! I became obsessed with this play as an A Level student – 18 years later, Shakespeare's exploration of power and female silencing is discomfortingly relevant in a post-#MeToo world.

'For a poet so thoughtful about her own development, the process of putting together a Selected Poems must have involved odd encounters with past selves.'
