Hello,

Thank you for this suggestion. I will definitely look into this. I'm
wondering about the history of emotions and how graffiti might provide some
evidence there. Would anyone have any suggestions about religious graffiti
in Early Modern Europe. Does such a thing exist? Thinking of partisan
scrawls during war, etc. I'm starting a line of thinking, but so far it's
been a bit of a nonstarter

Thank you all

Best,

Jordan
