All the Las Leonas feature some pretty intense moments and topics, and all take place during or right after The Exposition Universelle of 1889 better known as the 1889 Paris Exposition, was a world's fair held in Paris, France, from 6 May to 31 October 1889. It was the fifth of ten major expositions held in the city between 1855...

Corset and CrownThe Runaway Duchess - Joanna LowellJoin the Duchess and Lady on their latest read, The Runaway Duchess!Ok so this takes place in the late 1800s - specifically 1883. This was the height of colonialism and a lot of that colonialism looked like - stealing things from other places. In this book, Neal was essentially a botanical adventurer.Botanical expeditions during the 18th and 19th centuries were often state-sponsored endeavors aimed at cataloging and exploiting the flora of colonized territories. These collections were not merely scientific pursuits but were deeply intertwined with colonial objectives, including economic exploitation and the...

Corset and CrownRough Surrender - Cari SilverwoodJoin Duchess Katie & Lady Sadie as they dive into the world of historical BDSMFor those of us that we raised in a school system that doesn’t talk about colonialism… I know it is shocking but in 1910 Great Britain owned Egypt. By 1922 Egypt will be an independent nation. 1910 is a wild time in the world anyways. There is a lot of colonialism in this book - I mean the cast are all expats or colonizers themselves. There is a lot of the energy that will lead to the xenophobia and nationalism that is the cause of the firs...

Corset and CrownThe Finest Print - Erin LangstonJoin Duchess Katie & Lady Sadie as they discuss "The Finest Print" by Erin Langston!Fun fact - most British pubs are named like the duck and dog because so much of the population was illiterate for so long that was the only way for people to know the names of places.“These factors led to greater production of books, newspapers, magazines and ephemera than ever before. Between 1800 and 1835, twenty-five thousand titles were published in Britain; between 1835 and 1862, this figure more than doubled, at 64,000. In 1801, the number of copies of stamped newspapers was 16 million, bu...

Corset and CrownYou Should Be So Lucky - Cat SebastianA Short History of Queerness in The New YorkThis book takes place in 1960 in NYC so for some cultural and Queer context for this I thought I would just share a brief overview of Queer history. Before colonization from white Europeans many indigenous tribes had a very different view of Queerness and homosexuality. The area that would become New Amsterdam and later NYC was predominantly Lenape who had very accepting views of gender expansiveness or who someone could love. From 1600-1799 homosexuality could be punished by flogging, being dunked in the Hudson River as well as the death penalty. During...
