What the Victorians Made of Romanticism has been awarded the 2018 Dorothy Lee Award for Outstanding Scholarship in the Ecology of Culture by the Media Ecology Association.  It’s an honour to receive this prestigious prize.

I’ve started correcting the proofs for my new book What the Victorians Made of Romanticism. The book will be published by Princeton University Press in the autumn.  Correcting proofs is a painstaking business, but so far there are very few errors.  Publishers hate authors who change their mind about things once the book has been typeset, because changes at this stage are expensive and delay production.  So it’s too late to make any big changes to the book now.
