  10. Gutted to be missing Rivka Swenson’s #ASECS2026 paper on the lyric in Harris’s List of Covent Garden Ladies. I’ve coincidentally been thinking quite a bit about the verse in Harris’s List lately while putting together harrisslist.prisms.digital/

  11. Experiencing serious FOMO from afar thanks to #ASECS2026: such an impressive range of #c18th #poetry papers, from Behn, Elizabeth Carter, and Phillis Wheatley to Erasmus Darwin, Coleridge, Ann Plato, and Iain Mac Mhurchaidh, plus Faustina Maratti and Nguyễn Du for good measure.

  12. OTD (273 years ago): Designs by Mr. R. Bentley for Six Poems by Mr. T. Gray (1753), the first authorized collected edition of Gray's poetry, published by Robert Dodsley.

  13. The #HarrissListDigitalArchive project has reached the halfway point 🎉

    9 of the 18 surviving editions of Harris’s List of #CoventGardenLadies are now available for data exploration, enabling research through tabular analysis, mapping, and network visualisation.

    Excited to see how scholars and the public engage with this remarkable eighteenth-century source as the archive continues to grow. More editions, data, and discoveries coming soon.

  16. I've put online a #c18th side project on Harris’s List of Covent Garden Ladies that brings together all digitized surviving editions in one place.

    The site uses data extraction to enable mapping and network analysis, with the aim of exploring questions of urban history, genre and print culture, geography, and social worlds across editions.

    Project here: harrisslist.prisms.digital/ — work in progress, comments very welcome!
