Thank you @EnricaFerrara @DunneCatherine and @IICDublino for having me! #FIILI was a great event, I'm honoured and proud to have been part of it. For me, being a scholar means also being a storyteller and I am happy I shared this with you and the audience! ๐๐๐

Brunilde - they might not be perfect, but who cares? Adventure and friendship is what matters! More on Cantini's beautiful work here ๐ barbaracantini.com/
Finally, Loredana Lipperini is a journalist, author, and Cultural activist. Her 2022 children's book Il Senzacoda, illustrated by Stefano Tambellini, is about fear and facing ones fears, with a little help from very special friends. More info here ๐lipperatura.it/libri/
Delighted to be at the @histchild conference in Newcastle with @Marco_Omes and @MaelleLe_Roux - a full panel on @IrishResearch funded project MILC @ChildrenoGalway and @uniofgalway! Excellent event start, looking forward to the rest! #histchild2024
Dr Gasperini points to the emergence of female health manuals in 19th century Europe that paradoxically asserted the motherhood was a skill, but also framed it as something innate ๐ Mother and child health were often blended, complicating understandings ๐บ #histchild2024
Giving the final touch to my presentation right now ๐ฉโ๐ป๐ฅ Thank you @issclblog, looking forward to meeting you!
