Investigations of a Dog

The new ancient/medieval edition of Carnivalesque is now up at Bavardess (with a special Halloween theme).

The next early-modern edition will be right here at Investigations of a Dog on 22nd November.

There’s a new early-modern edition of Carnivalesque up at Mercurius Politcus. Nick has done a fantastic job of pastiching 17th century presbyterian bigot Thomas Edwards.

The next Carnivalesque will be an ancient/medieval edition  at The Cranky Professor in November. You can submit posts using the ancient/medieval nomination form.

The new edition of the Military History Carnival is now up at Osprey Publishing blog. It’s a special Olympic themed edition – Mike has done an excellent job of putting it together.

Next month’s MHC will be hosted by Alex Clark at History of Warfare on the 14th September. You can e-mail submissions to alexanderclark999 [at] gmail [dot] com or use the submission form.

We also need hosts for October onwards.

And the latest early-modern edition of Carnivalesque is up at Early Modern Notes. From my experience of carnivals I’d guess that “more nominations than any other post” means about two nominations…

The 15th Military History Carnival is now up at Cardinal Wolsey’s Today In History. Alun has done an excellent job (and I didn’t even have to send in any extra submissions this time). The next edition will be at the Osprey Publishing blog on 18th August. E-mail submissions to blog at ospreypublishing dot com or use the submission form.

This is the 14th Military History Carnival, with a special theme of Contested Boundaries. Today is also the day that Bloggers Unite encourages bloggers to write about human rights (hat tip: Mark Stoneman). I might post something on that theme later today if I have time (and I probably won’t have time), but this carnival edition gives plenty of attention to human rights issues.
