[...] Something Historic This Way Comes: I will be hosting the 23rd edition of the History Carnival here at OitNN on January 15th. (Carnival No. 22 is up at Jonathan Dresner’s Frog In A Well.) If you read (or write!) any interesting history-related blogging between now and January 15, please let me know by commenting or emailing a link (I’m at electromail-way at-way obmacdougall-ray ot-day org-way.) It doesn’t have to be academic-style history or the work of a professional historian–quite the opposite. The guidelines say: “It must be stressed that the Carnival is not just for academics and specialists, that entries certainly don’t have to be heavyweight scholarship. … They may be focused on a historical topic, on the author’s particular research interests or, alternatively, they may be reflections on the particular challenges and rewards of studying, researching and teaching history. Other examples of possible candidates for inclusion could include reviews of history books or web resources, discussions of ‘popular’ histories (films, dramas and documentaries, novels, etc).” A few submissions have already trickled in–thanks for those, keep them coming, and tune in here on the 15th!

This is the 23rd edition of the History Carnival, and in honor of that number’s Discordian significance, this carnival skews a little to the strange. Not that there’s not good history here. But what is a carnival, I ask you, without a few freaks? [...]

[...] In an attempt to bring some seasonal cheer (something often in particularly short supply at this time of year) I offer a few virtual Christmas presents. Actually the first two are a little out of date and I should have linked them a good while ago, but I suppose it’s the thought that counts. First up, the Second Asian History Carnival Hosted by Muninn, who did an excellent job of rounding up recent posts on Asian history from around the blogoverse. This was shortly followed by Jonathan Dresner’s History Carnival #22 hosted at the Frog in a Well blog. Between the two of them, these should give you enough reading matter for the whole of the holiday period. [...]
