@histodons

Pages from Glig-Gamena Angel-Deod with 6 drawings to show the activites 'Hoodman blind' and 'Hot Cockles'. The drawings include people with hoods covering their heads and others bent over in preparation to be spanked.
A page from Glig-Gamena Angel-Deod with 3 drawings to show the game 'Animals imitated'. It includes people with sticks, drums, dogs, bells and a stag.
A page from Glig-Gamena Angel-Deod with 3 drawings to show the activity called 'Mummeries'. There are various people dressed up in outfits like those a jester might wear. Others have animal heads.

New blog alert: "The Practice of Inclusion Within the Walls of Fulbourn Asylum" https://www.exploreyourarchive.org/the-practice-of-inclusion-within-the-walls-of-fulbourn-asylum/

As November highlights to us the importance of inclusion, we delve into the records of Fulbourn Hospital (formally Fulbourn Asylum), held by Cambridgeshire Archives. Bringing light to mental health histories is instrumental in helping us learn today. We can understand better the lives that were lived, and the practices faced by the patients who were in this type of care.

Stammbaum des modernen Sozialismus / Family tree of modern socialism.

#socialism #Germany #Deutschland #deutsch #Marx #marxism #communism #trees #posters #archives #GLAM #libraries @archivistodon @histodons

A zoomed in section of the top of the tree
A zoomed in section of the middle of the tree
a zoomed in section of the bottom of the tree. It reads at the bottom "Stammbaum des modernen Sozialismus / family tree of modern socialism"

Being in Cambridge, today I’m fortunate to be able to attend ‘The Care of Is a Difficult Business’, a symposium honouring the legacy of Francis Jenkinson (1853 Aug 20–1923 Sep 21), librarian of Cambridge University Library from 1899 until 1923. A full day of excellent papers, display of Jenkinsoniana, and a reception are planned.

While taking in today’s stellar papers, I updated the @wikipedia entry on Jenkinson, adding, inter alia, brief mention of this symposium (with archived links!): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Jenkinson

06 Sep 1903: Death of Charles Ammi Cutter (b. 1837), US best remembered for Cutter Expansive Classification: a system of shelving by standardized class numbers so on related topics sit together. He also helped produce the US’ 1st public and played a major role in making card cataloguing—versus the old practice of chronologically listing titles in ledgers—the international model.
