Thank you to all our speakers, chairs, listeners, organisers, supporters and performers who made the conference as amazing as it was. Special thanks goes to Mary F. Burns, @VernonLeeSoc, @biflorence and il Palmerino for their generosity and skilful organisation across 3 venues!

@JustinDMRogers Such a great paper!

@Future_of_Conf She’s such an excellent scholar. I’m sure that was a great talk!

Nicole Fluhr’s paper on #VernonLee’s ‘A Wedding Chest’ thinks about the object, the female body, historiography, museums and violence.

So it begins! Scarlett’s-Electra Le Blanc opens our Future of Intelligence Conference at the Lyceum!
