Greetings from Lund, where Thijs (@thijselfrink.bsky.social) presented his fascinating research on the history and knowledge of curing herring in the early modern Low Countries.
This week I’ve been in Lund for the History of Knowledge conference, presenting on knowledge of salt and curing in the early modern Dutch herring fishery. The inspiring discussions, warm atmosphere, and beautiful autumn colours made this a memorable experience. Many thanks to everyone involved!
