Who doesn’t like petty texts, celebrity gossip, dating advice, spicy song lyrics, or controversial opinions? Now imagine all that... but it’s historical. In this podcast we’ll be reading some juicy historical letters, diaries, articles and other piping hot tea. So get yourself something to drink and let’s jump into TEXTORY.

There is so much myth and speculation around who Marie Antoinette was as a person, that it’s really helpful to have historical texts from the era – like today’s “Memoirs of Madame Campan” - of people that really knew her. But how reliable are her observations? ________________ If you enjoy the podcast and want to support what I’m doing, check out my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/textory [https://www.patreon.com/textory]

Probably the farthest we’ve ever gone in our podcast time machine – today we’re in ancient Rome, in a crowd of very upset women, as described by Livy in “History of Rome”. ________________ If you enjoy the podcast and want to support what I’m doing, check out my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/textory [https://www.patreon.com/textory]

A feminist – bordering on misandrist – text from 1592? Written by a woman? Count me in! In today’s episode, we’re reading Moderata Fonte’s “The Merits of Women”, translated and edited by Virginia Cox. ________________ If you enjoy the podcast and want to support what I’m doing, check out my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/textory [https://www.patreon.com/textory]

While owning cats as pets goes back to antiquity and beyond, the existence of self-proclaimed “cat people” is a result of the popularization of the hobby in the 19th and 20th centuries. Today we’re reading Francis Simpson’s “Cats and All About Them” from 1902 to see what Edwardian cat ownership looked like. ________________ If you enjoy the podcast and want to support what I’m doing, check out my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/textory [https://www.patreon.com/textory]

In today’s episode we’re reading a rulebook on how to be an absolutely insufferable Victorian f*ckboy, by none other than the courtesan and dancer Lola Montez. Her “The Art of Fascinating” from 1858 should be a guide to anyone setting up a Tinder profile. ________________ If you enjoy the podcast and want to support what I’m doing, check out my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/textory [https://www.patreon.com/textory]
