What a brilliant time I've had at the Walking Women conference in Hamburg. Thanks to @sandradinter.bsky.social for brilliant hosting. Great to work with @cqualmann.bsky.social on a Night Walk, which ended with the creation of our own constellation, each star dedicated to a different woman.

Delighted and excited to announce the new @bloomsburylit.bsky.social long 19th C series, 'The New Nineteenth Century', edited by Porscha Fermanis and Omar Miranda. @amymartin13.bsky.social and soliciting proposals now, so read the blurb and please DM/email with ideas! Reposts gratefully received!
Bloomsbury flyer for a new series titled The New Nineteenth Century, edited by Porscha Fermanis and Omar F Miranda. Series blurb reads: The New Nineteenth Century tracks the ever-evolving dynamism of long nineteenth-century studies by publishing exciting innovations and diverse voices in our field. The series welcomes scholarly monographs
and edited collections that foreground the cultural, epistemic, and linguistic plurality of the decades from 1750 to 1920, including underexplored and underrepresented literary productions from around the globe. We embrace a wide range of methodologies and approaches, especially those that challenge and revise existing discourses, or seek to broaden knowledge about non-Anglophone archives, texts, and sources.
For more information or to discuss an idea for a book in the series, please contact:
