Last year Matt Emberg developed a board game about the conquest of Tenochtitlan with @bgsuCURS funding. Today we got to play the finalized version. Impressive design and research behind it. #ILoveHistory

Check also the other essays in the spring issue. I haven't read all of them yet; however, some are very good, such as the one from @aechallu and John Coatsworth and the one from @MGF91! 👇 https://t.co/ePUtf9umu9

A fantastic experience for our history majors to meet @WoodardColin . “Desperately we need people who can bring everything together. That’s the historian.” Thanks @bgsu for this opportunity!

Terrific Hess lecture wrapping up with Francis Gavin (@JohnsHopkins). I particularly like Gavin’s point that history’s use is less about lessons, more about understanding complexity. Historical thinking through problems, not the past per-se, is the true power of history.

Panel 4 of https://t.co/EjniWTC0FB is about North American 19th-century History by Gabriel Rodriguez, @BGSU_History MA student, and Charles Beatty-Medina (Prof of Hist @UToledo). The connectivity of the North American experience never stops to surprise me.

Se me fue mi alma pater académico. Roberto Cortés Conde fue el fundador de la Historia Económica Argentina moderna. Bajo su dirección, escribí mi primer artículo académico publicado. Roberto, te agradezco todo.

Gran tristeza por la muerte de Roberto Cortés Conde, gran historiador y economista. Sus investigaciones iluminaron aspectos claves de nuestra historia económica. Fue un lujo tenerlo como maestro y amigo. QEPD. Acá dejo la entrevista que le hizo JC de Pablo en 2007

Dr. Stephanie Gearhart, @bgsuenglish prof, immerses us in the language of eclipses in Shakespeare's times, when new & unsettling scientific paradigms changed the way people think about the universe. Check out this new bonus episode of Eclipsing History at
