Dickens’s World
- Free Online Conference
- 7-8 March 2012
Wiley-Blackwell held a free online conference in association with the British Council Dickens 2012 initiative to mark the 200th anniversary of Dickens’s birth.
The conference involved an international group of scholars who discussed the work of one of the world’s most important authors. The emphasis was on illustrating the many ways in which Dickens influenced, and was influenced by, his contact with other countries. More broadly, we hope the conference will encourage further online discussion about the social, cultural and technological milieu in which (and of which) Dickens wrote. The conference has now closed by commentary is still open and everyone is welcome to participate!
Features include:
- Video addresses by prominent Dickens scholars
- Free scholarly papers with discussion forum for each
- Reading Room with free articles and book chapters from Wiley-Blackwell
Whether you are actively studying Dickens or working in an adjacent area, you will find something of interest!
