3 weeks to get your abstract into us for our study day on (peri-)menopause in Victorian literature. That's 1 week to jot it down on your to-do list, 1 week to forget about it & 1 week to write down your brilliant research ideas in a somewhat coherent manner and send it to us!

This photo may be upsetting to some people as it shows a book being vandalised... aka my notes on Mary Shelley's Lodore. Key words so far are: Incestuous, Angel of the House, and depression. Looking forward to discussing further on 17 September at the VPFA 3rd sex reading group.

A rare Victorian gem and one of the oldest surviving films of London. Shot in Hampstead Village on this day, 8th March 1896. It captures people arriving on their bicycles and horses and being welcomed by a gentleman in a top hat.
