The Dickens Society Blog is under new editorship! Dr Katie Bell and Katie Holdway are looking for engaging submissions from scholars at all career stages on any aspect of Dickensian research. For the fall/winter term of 2020, we particularly welcome posts from researchers new to the field, especially undergraduates and new post-graduate students.

The blog aims to make research on Charles Dickens’s life and works accessible to all levels of researchers and Dickens enthusiasts.

Submissions for the upcoming term should be 800-1200 words in length, and will be accepted up to January 2021. Submissions will be posted on the blog between September 2020 and January 2021.

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

• Reviews/synopses of books pertaining to the life or works of Dickens
• Dickens’s afterlives (influence upon film, television, video games, etc.)
• Abstracts of research projects on Dickens (thesis or chapter blurbs)
• Institutional structures in Dickens (political, social, religious, etc.)

Please email proposals, blog posts or questions to K.V.Holdway@soton.ac.uk and doctorkatiebell@gmail.com
