• S2 Ep15: The Mass Female Protest of Ancient Rome

  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

• S2 Ep14: I’d Rather Drown Than Submit To a Man

  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

• S2 Ep13: The OG Edwardian Cat Lady

  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

• S2 Ep12: The Victorian Anti-Rizz Guide

  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

• S2 Ep11: Woman's Thoughts on Women

  Not all women involved with the feminist movement were necessarily radical. Today we’re reading “Woman’s Thoughts on Women” by Dinah Craik, a British writer with an unusual life story, and discovering her views on female work, female friendships, and old women’s clothes.  ________________  If you enjoy the podcast and want to support what I’m doing, check out my Patreon!  https://www.patreon.com/textory
