Just got hold of this very rare pamphlet for the first art exhibition organised by a trade union, the AEU, which I joined at age 16, and is now part of @unitetheunion.bsky.social
Fellowship opportunity here at Edinburgh for unaffiliated ECRs in C19 studies. Very happy to chat to anyone who’s interested in applying.
The Guardian has published an obituary of my dear friend Brian, written by his wife Maxine. I love the photo she chose for it. www.theguardian.com/education/20... #C19

I've extended the deadline & adjusted the wording on this scholarship after queries from prospective students.
Please encourage students interested in a funded PhD on poetry in either 18c/Romantic and/or settler colonialism & Indigenous sovereignty to get in touch!

Really excited to be talking with @danielwilson.bsky.social and @fedenanni.bsky.social about collaboration at this event!
Many congratulations to you three x.
Brian's 2024 essay in the 1830s book
This is very sad news indeed. I had the pleasure of working with Brian for the 1830s book that David Stewart and I brought out a few months ago with cup. Brian wrote a terrific essay on lithography and the comic image. Brilliant work and a joy to work with.
Enjoyed talking and meeting at the London Paris seminar last night. Thanks to David Duff for organising and Chairing. Lovely cycling through central London today

Good to hear from you. No I hadn't seen that. I'm taking the book everywhere. It's helping me cope with work

I replaced my teenage Leaves of Grass, which had its pages falling out, last week. This new one, that Peter Riley has with OWC, already looks well used. I can't go anywhere without it. 'WORD over all, beautiful as the sky!'
Congratulations Gerry! Nice one
