History Carnival, May 2012
This month we’ve chosen some outstanding blogs of three kinds: posts with stories on specific events or sources, posts on digital history and digital sources, and posts on visual history sources.
CFP: Early Modern Carnivalesque
The next Carnivalesque will be for everything early modern (c.1500-1800CE) and will be hosted at Conversion Narratives in Early Modern Europe on 28/29 April.
Please nominate your favourite blog posts from the last couple of months using the nomination form. There will be a ‘conversion’ theme so posts on that and related topics will be particularly welcome!

Nominations via the new form.
History Carnival website
The Carnival website is (very nearly) fully functional again at historycarnival.org, with a slight visual redesign and a major overhaul under the bonnet.
The site no longer uses WordPress; I realised that the site really didn’t need all the power of the platform as it has evolved today and I’ve finally developed enough coding skills to build what it did need. So I’ve rebuilt it from scratch, with a massively simplified database, but one that’s tailor-made for the needs of the Carnival. I’ll be doing the same to the Carnivalesque site over the next month or two. Watch this space!
