We have never been pre-modern

Speaking of medievalists...

"Bloggers with some knowledge of and interest in pre-modern history" -- a larger percentage of the blogosphere's population than one might imagine -- are invited to host the October edition of Carnivalesque, a monthly blog "carnival" (a showcase of recent posts, from a variety of blogs, on a single theme; in this case, anything that happened in the mid-fifteenth or early sixteenth centuries CE).

Confused? Tune in to Blogenspiel next week to check out the September edition of Carnivalesque.
