The 19th-Century Group is an interdisciplinary research colloquium for the study of British literature and culture broadly and openly defined, including trans-Atlantic exchanges, empire, and more. We are interested in the long nineteenth century, including the second half of the eighteenth century and the Edwardian period.

The group holds about two or three meetings each quarter. Our primary purpose is to provide a place where UCLA graduate students and faculty can share their work in progress in the form of a pre-circulated paper. We also host visiting scholars on occasion. All welcome. You need not be from UCLA.

If you’re interested, please sign up for our mailing list by emailing: jhg@ucla.edu.
