Maney Journal of the Month, and other stuff.
Time for a few links for your reading delectation!
Maney's Journal of the Month is Costume, the journal of the Costume Society. Which means they are offering 50 articles for free access until the end of this month. Most (if not all of them) are post-medieval and modern in focus.

The conference papers have now been published in book form, and there's also a streaming archive on this website so you can download the individual presentations in podcast form.
Not medieval enough? Go over to historyextra, where Gillian and I co-wrote an article about 7 weird and wonderful medieval facts in celebration of the Beast's publication.
