No excuse for not sending in a proposal for RSVP 2026!

NAVSA 2025 was FAB! Thks go to everyone who gave terrific papers & shared their brilliant selves in so many conversations. But the biggest thanks to NATHAN & PATRICK who put together such a strong program, were so warm, & were literally everywhere! Models of intellectual community building!

I truly laughed out loud reading this. And thought -- as I often have -- "I'd read anything Adam Smyth writes." Which may just be the reaction every writer, esp of unfinished projects, wants to hear!

with every video, I'm in awe

I am currently teaching a class called "_JE_, Revisions, and Counterpoints." LMK if you'd like me to share the syllabus, Helena!

So sorry to hear of Michael Tyman's passing. I feel lucky to have taken a short seminar he lead on lithos at Reading some three years ago. I learned so much from the seminar and speaking with him that weekend.

Thanks for sharing Caroline (and reposting Sarah). I'm sad to hear of Michael Twyman's passing too. I feel lucky to have been able to take a small workshop/seminar he led on litho three years ago at Reading. I learned so much -- and will continue to in his works.

Don’t miss "Copy-Print: Visualizing Empire in the Arts" for a fascinating intermedia discussion with Holly Shaffer, Alex Bubb, & Priti Joshi at #NAVSA2025

Excited about launch of a new book series I'm co-editing for EUP, entitled Edinburgh Critical Studies on the Colonial and Anti-Colonial Press. Several contributions in the pipeline already, and we're on the lookout for potential additions. Get in touch! edinburghuniversitypress.com/series-edinb...

BAVS 2026 in Liverpool follows on the hells of RSVP 2026 in Dublin -- twofer for North Americans, as the publicity copy says! (Here's RSVP's cfp with a Nov 1 deadline: rs4vp.org/rsvp-confere...

RSVP Annual Conference – RSVP The nineteenth century was marked by unprecedented migration, as people moved to urban centers; were forcibly or semi-forcibly relocated; and emigrated to escape war, famine, economic instability, or…

Just two weeks left to get your applications in for #MovementsMigrations aka #RSVP2026 in Dublin! We're looking forward to your hot takes on the ways in which the press shaped and was shaped by the movements and migrations throughout the long #19thC. See the full CFP on our website:

I LOVE the neat tackle-boxes with all binding supplies! Envious. But also...excited that a LeGuin is coming my way?

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

The deadline for application is Oct 15. If you or somebody you know works on periodicals and attribution research, do apply (or spread the word).

Congrats, Matthew! Woohoo (and in only four years, wow!).
Love the newspaper. Of course!

I love Sagar's web project and the book is a marvel -- his intros are esp wonderful and really challenge the tradition narrative about Indian public discourse in this period. They complicate Indian anti-colonialism and nationalism so well.
Sorry about your colleague.

Love the slide ruler! And congrats -- both on teaching & house!

The deadline for Curran Fellowships is fast approaching: Oct 15 (letters due a week later). Who doesn't want money for travel & research? So much exciting work to do on British/empire periodicals of the long 19th c!

Deadline to submit proposals is a month away! Don't miss the boat!

Chaiyya Chaiyya is truly a brilliant number, Mani Ratnam, AR Rahmam, SRK, and Farah Khan (the choreographer) in top for. The movie itself (Dil Se) is, I think one of Ratnam's best, superior to the other two in the trilogy.

William & Mary University in Virginia is looking for an assistant professor of Global Victorian Literatures. Application deadline is November 9. williammary.wd12.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/WM/det... #C19th #19th-c
