(Sorry, crammed all info into one post, but Six Acts is just such a stunning piece of art!)

Stunning deconstruction of race, nationalism, and museum culture: Lasana Shabazz's rendition of Camptown Races in front of Alexander von Wagner's 1882 Ben-Hur-inspired "The Chariot Race" at Manchester Art Gallery, a performance that's now part of the same exhibition via Sonia Boyce's "Six Acts"

Guess who’s having the best time teaching and getting some research done at the Universidade de Lisboa before term starts back home? So far it’s been seminars on cultural histories, neo-Victorianism, Stuart Hall, and #UndiscipliningVictorianStudies!

My short take on current challenges for Neo-Victorian Studies is out in Victorian Literature and Culture Grateful to all at VLC: Rachel Ablow & Daniel Hack for editing & publishing this, and to Ariana Nadia Nash for all the support! 🔓Open Access @CambridgeUP doi.org/10.1017/S106...

What will it take for neo-Victorian studies to keep its promise of moving beyond the toxic legacies of its Victorian forebears and enter into meaningful dialogues with disciplines such as Indigenous studies, African studies, Black studies, or postcolonial studies? Could the neo-Victorian even become a field that scholars from these disciplines might choose to engage with to a much larger degree? These disciplines are, after all, acutely aware of how contemporary hegemonies and paradigms relate to a significant degree to the long nineteenth century's colonial exploitations. Just as Victorian studies is tasked with its undisciplining, such an approach to neo-Victorian studies would require critical (self-)assessments of the field's disciplinarity, its structures and epistemologies of exclusion, its methodological and conceptual limitations.Footnote 9 These interventions cannot be made effectively if they come from within the current domains of neo-Victorian scholarship alone.
