Nineteenth-Century British Studies

// Presented by the Denbo Center for Humanities & the Arts

This seminar explores all aspects of literature and culture during the “long nineteenth century,” encompassing the Romantic and Victorian periods. We have an inclusive interdisciplinary approach and we collaborate with faculty in eighteenth-century British studies and nineteenth-century American studies. We read primary texts (fiction, non-fiction, poetry) as well as the latest critical works. Our topics of discussion are usually driven by the research of our members and by the speakers we host. Recent areas of focus have included transatlanticism, economic theory, biography, musical performance, and radical politics.
