It’s an exciting time to be a nineteenth-century researcher at Edge Hill!

We welcome proposals on any aspect of nineteenth-century history, literature and culture, and we would be particularly pleased to supervise projects in the following fields:

• Nineteenth-century print culture
• Romantic, Victorian and Fin de Siècle literature
• Children’s literature
• Gothic and sensation fiction
• Gender and sexuality

We would be delighted to discuss potential projects in advance. Please contact us via the ‘People’ page of EHU Nineteen website.
