#OTD in 1922 American journalist Nellie Bly died.

She "was widely known for her record-breaking trip around the world in 72 days in emulation of Jules Verne's fictional character Phileas Fogg, and for an exposé in which she worked undercover to report on a mental institution from within."

A few years ago I read an excellent book on her trip around the world - "Eighty Days: Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Bisland's History-Making Race Around the World" by Matthew Goodman. I'd recommend it.

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (aka Lewis Carroll) was born #OTD in 1832.

An interesting comment from one proofreader at @DProofreaders : "It is said that Queen Victoria enjoyed the Alice books so much that she sent for all the author's works, and was then appalled to find herself confronted by mathematics."

"Curiosa mathematica, Part I: A new theory of parallels" by Dodgson, Charles L. coming soon at PG.

Before I read the bit about Halley's comet, I assumed William of Malmesbury was referring to Trump.

Can you clarify 'England's first king?' I know he was King of Wessex and perhaps of Anglo-Saxons, but I think there may have been other kingdoms in England at that time.

Musidora: The Bather 'At the Doubtful Breeze Alarmed', also known as The Bather, is a name given to four nearly identical oil paintings on canvas by English artist William Etty. The paintings illustrate a scene from James Thomson's 1727 poem Summer in which a young man accidentally sees a young woman bathing naked and is torn between his desire to look and his knowledge that he ought to look away.

Today is Burns' birthday, let's celebrate!

'There's no other poem like it': Why this Robert Burns classic is a masterpiece

Tam O'Shanter is a rip-roaring tale of witches and alcohol, but it has hidden depths. On Burns Night this Sunday – and 235 years after the poem was published in 1791 – Scots everywhere may well be treated to a masterwork with a unique, universal appeal.
