  1. #Eyeglasses, what a spectacular technology! 🤓

    They meaningfully improve day to day life experience for a bunch of us. I regularly take them for granted. The other day I went for a stroll around the neighborhood without mine, & let me tell you: it sucked. 😅

    I should slow down & be mindful to #appreciate stuff like that more often.

  2. #Eyeglasses were part of the material history of reading in early modern Europe, as this painting of 1403 (from Conrad von Soest) shows.

    This is a slow moving thread for #histodons, a thread about how to read in the past, where to buy eyeglasses, and how to do with them in general. The hashtag is #HowToDoWithGlassesInThePast

    Let's roll. #EarlyModernHistory #MediaHistory #BookHistory #HistKnow
