I'm a Reader in English Literature in the Department of Literary and Translation Studies, working principally on British cultural politics 1790-1850, and specializing in Romantic poetry and prose. I am Honorary Fellow in the Department of English, University of Liverpool, and was recently Senior Fellow in the Institute of Historical Research, University of London, and Fleeman Fellow in the School of English, University of St Andrews. My service to the profession includes an Associate Editorship on the Edinburgh University Press journal Romanticism (2016-present); Life Membership of the Wordsworth Conference Foundation (elected 2018); Fellowship of the Royal Historical Society (elected 2022); Trusteeship and Committee Membership of the Friends of Coleridge (elected 2023); and Fellowship of the English Association (elected 2024). My current projects include an edition of Ann Radcliffe's The Romance of the Forest (1791) for the Cambridge Edition of the Works of Ann Radcliffe, a major AHRC-funded research project, and special issues on historicism for the leading journals Romanticism and Essays in Romanticism.
