Really enjoyed ‘William Blake’s Universe’ @FitzMuseum_UK & the imaginative & intellectual connections it establishes with the work of Caspar David Friedrich & Philip Otto Runge. On display until 19 May fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/plan-yo…
Yes, it's not much of an exaggeration to say all history is built on fences. Though the neat lines we draw on historical maps probably says more about how we see the world than the more fluid and hybrid relationships (between people and with nature) that existed in the past.
Thanks - will have a listen. I'm looking at fences in a global context as a window on the history of property, division and conflict. Hedges will only be a small part of the story but I see them as one of the most positive forms of fencing, ecologically and potentially socially.
Great thread - thank you. Richard's book will be particularly interesting to me as I'm currently researching the history of fences.

This is a thread about hedges. They matter more than you think. And they are way more interesting. Let me explain… (1/12)

Take a look at our delicately beautiful collection of decorated pace eggs. These were painted by James Dixon, who worked for Wordsworth for 33 years as his gardener and clerk at Rydal Mount. It is thought James made these Pace Eggs for William and Mary's grandchildren.

This is a fascinating read and provides amazingly useful insight. Thanks to all involved.
🌳 Researchers from the @uniofbeds and @ChilternsNL have released the results of the largest UK study on how diverse communities engage with greenspaces & the countryside, finding that many had limited awareness of the spaces & faced barriers to access: beds.ac.uk/news/2024/march/n… 👈

Delighted that the first review of 'Lifescapes' is now out. Very grateful to Daniel for his perceptive and thought-provoking comments. @cambUP_History @CUPBookshop
My review of Jeremy Burchardt's "Lifescapes" (CUP) for @CultSocHistory is now available online. An exemplary historical study of the emotional and physical experience of landscape. It's a wondrous book, contemplative and empathetic throughout.
