  18. At the start of the year I finished reading George Meredith's The Ordeal of Richard Feverel. It's regarded as 'unjustly neglected'. I'm not sure. Some bold comic strokes, caricature, and social satire, turning darker and more tragic at the end. Moving on to modern novels now. #TeamEnglish #novels #VictorianStudies #19thcLit

  20. @lynncunliffe -- The Leeds Centre for #VictorianStudies (#LCVSLeeds) posted (2018-02-12) these images on Twitter, when Twitter still was not as toxic as it is now. You don't only see the usual photos of a posing Victorian couple, but also photos which the photographer made when the two tried not to laugh while getting their portraits done (1890s).
