@DrDionGeorgiou This is really sad to read Dion. I'm so sorry to hear that this is how you and your colleagues are being treated. Your teaching and scholarship are so valuable. I hope your management can be made to see that

@NikkiClark86 I prefer to use natal name/title. Sometimes I worry about doing it because it's not established practice but it makes more sense for my women who are often married multiple times. So I definitely support you using that convention!

@DrSarahLKenny I found Still Life by Sarah Winman heart-warming in a good way (sometimes I find 'feel good/heart-warming' books leave me a bit cold). It also makes you want to go to Florence immediately!

@NikkiClark86 I looked at the later 16th century material (Thynne papers) on microfilm at the IHR. It was a while ago though so I can't remember how much of the collection is available
