Alex Wingate

I wrote a blog post summing up my research trip this summer in Pamplona where I was looking at booksellers, private library inventories, and literacy. I talk a bit more about what I learned in terms of how my documents work than the content (hopefully future blog posts will be about that!), but it was helpful to think through what I learned that wasn't just "what happened in 17th-century Navarre?"

Alexandra E. WingateSummer 2023 Research Trip in Review*Note, about most of this was written in Frankfurt airport but I finished it up in the US a couple weeks later!So…the journey comes to an end. I’m on the way home after two months of research…

@BiblioWingate Nice write-up. I like the idea of "archives math." And your description of the systematic process should be of use to many, especially those new to the task

@CitizenWald Thanks! I do hope the process ones are useful to others
