Absolutely outrageous to say that a uni’s academic press doesn’t serve its undergraduates. Non-profit university presses support and sustain a scholarly and intellectual system THAT MAKES TEACHING UNDERGRADUATES POSSIBLE. No presses? no fields of study, no professors, no college.

Abstract for an essay "Ali Smith and the Unfinished Book: Novels, Middles, and Serialization in an Electronic Age"
Proofs!
I hope that novel people and #19thc people will like this essay on Ali Smith & her remaking of Victorian serial fiction (hey, I hope that people like and read Ali Smith!). Many thanks to @ceyingst.bsky.social for their help in the final stages of the essay's preparation.

I’ve just discovered that my short article in The Shandean (vol. 33) is available open access through @livunipress.bsky.social, together with the rest of the rich festschrift issue for the great Peter de Voogd. It looks at how Soviet editors censored Sterne’s A Sentimental Journey.

It’s been ten years since I left Moscow to study at the University of Toronto. It feels like these years have vanished somehow, but when you come to think of it, so much has happened since then, both good and bad.

Found out that book can be pre-ordered on Amazon, as well as on the OUP and Waterstone’s websites for, well, just peanuts!

Very sad news. The ‘Transfers’ series was probably the most important and interesting specialised book series in the whole field of eighteenth-century studies.

Just read this evening that Bucknell UP, which has published so many great books about the 18th century like this one, is closing for good. Terrible news for this field of research.
