We are excited to announce the launch of the 19v Seminar Series! Please join us on Zoom Wednesday, June 24 at 12 pm EST, for the first seminar: an interdisciplinary roundtable on “What Is The 19th Century?” with panelists Alex Martin (University of Notre Dame), Rosalind Polly Blakesley (Cambridge), and Luba Golburt (Berkeley). The panel will be moderated by Sara Dickinson (Università di Genova).

This event kicks off the 19v Seminar Series with reflections on what our object of study really is: When does the century begin and when does it end? Where can or should lines be drawn or erased between centuries? And are the answers to these questions different for different disciplines? Our speakers represent perspectives from the fields of history, art history, and literary studies.
