Just in time for Christmas... some updates on the blog of what we've been up to recently! First up, a report by Yasmin Akhter on the 2024 colloquium with keynote lecture & workshop from @awisnicki.bsky.social www.royalholloway.ac.uk/research-and...

So far this year we've been holding targeted events for Royal Holloway students, staff & alumni: > a wisdom-sharing event by & for PhD students, > 'nineteenth-century studies research networking pot-pourri' > a fantastic student-alumni intergenerational workshop in the archives. More info soon!

Lovely to see you all here! We are a group of researchers based at Royal Holloway, University of London, a very Victorian place, studying the nineteenth century around the world, and particularly the products and legacies of Victorian Britain and its empire.
