poldarks comm over from LJ - I'm happy to stay on as a sleeping co-mod (especially since I know a reasonable amount about the 1970s series and the books), but if anyone is interested in taking it over, they are welcome.
(But in any case people are welcome to join and make use of it anyway!)

miss_morlandHi! Just thought I'd share links to the two fics I wrote for Yuletide 2018, since both fall into the category of historical fandoms. Thanks for setting up such a great comm. <3

sea_changedI've posted several history fandom-related things to my journal over the past couple of weeks, so I thought I would do a round-up post here in case they were of interest to others:
A review of The Favourite (2018). I finally saw The Favourite, and I loved and was fascinated by it. I highly recommend seeing it if you haven't already; if you have, come talk to me about it!
Reading Wednesday mini-reviews of two recently-published 18th century-related books: The Mermaid & Mrs. Hancock by Imogen Hermes Gowar, historical fiction set in 1780s England, and Tilar J. Mazzeo's biography of Eliza Schuyler Hamilton.
A Yuletide recs post. Five out of the six fandoms I list recs for are historical: The Awakening (2011), The Bedlam Stacks, Carol, Lord Peter Wimsey, and Lynes & Mathey.
And finally, the Yuletide treat I posted this year; Society of Gentlemen fic, Dominic/Silas, 2870 words.

favorite historical tv shows
Dec. 18th, 2018 01:42 pmsea_changedThere was discussion about making a post where people could share their favorite historical TV shows, so I thought I would go ahead and do that: I'd love to hear people's favorites, and I'm always looking for recs.
A few of my own favorites, to start us off--I'm undoubtedly forgetting many, but here are a few off the top of my head that I love:
Black Sails - Early 18th century pirates. The first season starts out somewhat trashy, but the show quickly matures into a fascinating and beautifully-done meditation on the stories we tell--about history, about others, about ourselves--and what stories get preserved and remembered and what stories are forgotten or destroyed. Excellent LGBT rep. Four seasons.
The Hour - 1950s BBC news reporters. The cast here is stellar--Ben Whishaw, Romola Garai, Dominic West--and the production and writing utterly stunning. This isn't an era or a subject I would be naturally drawn to, but everything about this show is just so extraordinarily well done. Two very short (six-episode) seasons.
Deadwood - 1870s gold-mining town in South Dakota. The one, the only. A cult show for a reason--you either love it or you, well, don't--this show is incredibly well-acted and written like nothing you're likely to hear on television before or since. Three seasons.
North and South - Victorian England. The most goddamn romantic thing you'll ever see in your life. Based on the Elizabeth Gaskell novel, this follows a woman from the south of England and a man from the north, and deals with social and class issues in the mid-Victorian era while telling a nuanced and compelling love story. Also contains the best refusal of a marriage proposal scene ever. Miniseries.
ETA: I knew I was forgetting something important--the HBO John Adams miniseries. It's absolutely wonderful--the acting is incredible (almost everyone's perfect, but their Jefferson is especially perfect), the production is stellar, and it's for the most part quite remarkably historically accurate. A definite recommendation.
