The Muse Clio

Amuseclio takes her username, tongue in cheek, from Clio, the Muse of History. "A Muse, Clio" / "Amuse Clio" is an anglophone, US American woman with a doctorate in History. She has lived in all three NAFTA countries and has travelled extensively in Latin America and western Europe. She endeavors to be a citizen of the world. In the early 1990s, she became a full professor at a research university, and is now retired from teaching. She became a Wikipedian in 2014. Rather than complain about the inaccuracy of many WP articles, she has attempted to improve them. She has edited on the history of Latin America, especially Mexico. Her current interests are the early modern Atlantic world, the Age of Enlightenment, Age of Revolutions, Spain and Spanish Empire, history of science, and art history.

  • Another: "I tell my students, 'When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else. If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else.'" Toni Morrison
