Founded in 2000, the British Association for Victorian Studies supports and promotes research in Britain and beyond. The Oxford Faculties of English and History are delighted to host this anniversary conference. There will be no specific theme this year. Papers on any aspect of long-nineteenth-century studies are welcome.

The PGR/ECR Professionalisation Afternoon will be held on the afternoon of 22 July. New this year is the opportunity to exchange writing for peer review, including proposals for first monographs and postdoctoral fellowships.

The programming will also set aside some time at the start and end of each day when participants are warmly invited to take part in a range of social and cultural activities.
