Literary London Reading Group Series

The new programme of seminars for 2024-2025 starts tonight, with Professor Caroline Bressey (UCL) at 6pm, Senate House (room tbc). Professor Bressey will be exploring the representation of Black history as set out in Dickens’s periodical All The Year Round. For more, see: Representing Black Victorians: A view of ‘The Black Man’ in Britain from Dickens’s All the Year Round – Literary London Reading Group (wordpress.com).

A reminder (or introduction!) to the series: we run sessions in which leading academics present new place-based research on London, on the second Tuesday of every month during the academic year. There is a small bit of optional reading published on the site in advance and the events themselves comprise a talk by the speaker, drinks and informal discussion. Everyone is welcome – students, scholars, members of the public. If you have any questions or would like to be added to the mailing list, email me at literary.londonrg@gmail.com.
