INAUGURAL CONFERENCE: VICTORIAN WORLD LITERATURES

Working from the proposition that Victorian Studies is in a moment of transition from a focus on British culture and history to one that embraces a globalised world system, we seek to draw together scholars and students of Victorian Studies as well as editors, publishers and educationalists to address three concerns key to the re-formulation of the field.

What might a comparative, global Victorian Studies look like?

How might this be taught?

How might this be published and disseminated?
