About Me

Lesley Hall: London, United Kingdom; Retired former archivist at the Wellcome Library: now a Wellcome Library Research Fellow, and Honorary Associate Professor, Department of Science and Technology Studies, University College London: also a historian who has published several books and numerous articles and chapters on issues to do with sexuality and gender in the UK in the 19th and 20th centuries. She has subsidiary interests in the history of women in science and medicine, interwar middlebrow women novelists, and science fiction and fantasy. She considers herself a feminist. Twitter @erinacean This blog went, not particularly intentionally, on hiatus in 2017 for various life-related reasons. I am now intermittently posting again, if only to do something about recording various weird research rabbit-holes I've been down that don't feel like part of any larger projects.
