About
In May 2011 I graduated with my MA in modern European history, emphasis in the history of science at San Francisco State University. Although I think of myself primarily as an historian, I am also an art writer and essayist. My historical work focuses mainly on early modern (late Renaissance and Enlightenment) philosophy and science and the cultural history of 19th century Britain and France. I am especially interested in how the materials and objects, images and beliefs, rituals and practices of every day life change over time. I enjoy writing about the arts and learning more about the worlds artists create for themselves through the shared community of their audiences and their fellow creators of culture. I write a weekly art/culture/history blog at www.myeyeinthesky.net
