Looking forward to getting the Literary London band back together for 'Fashioning London'. Come and join us at St Katharine Docks!
A splendid tour West Norwood Cemetery with Jane Jordan – full of archival highlights, colourful lives in the midst of subsiding graves, family catacombs and much discussion of the wildly variegated tastes of the dead! #litlon Literary London Friends of West Norwood Cemetery (FOWNC) West Norwood Cemetery
Back in London for Literary London conference in watery surrounds of St Katherine's dock. Kicking off with Peter Jones thinking about the conference as rummaging among the second hand, swap shop stores for interesting finds rather than the Hugo Boss of big academic confs #litlon23
Very happily strolling around Wapping following a (v inspiring) conference on mapping cities at St Katherine's Dock with Northeastern University London & Literary London. (And yes, I did get lost on the way there. Digital mapping ≠ geospatial competence). #EuropeanLiteraryMapofLondon
Day 1 of the Literary London Conference #litlon23 Northeastern University London. So far we've had rag fairs, digital cities, 19thC fashion, feminist visions of the city and so much more!
Our annual lecture: "Fashion City: How Jewish Londoners Shaped Global Style" with @LucieWhitmore and Bethan Bide is about to start!
Lovely to be back at the Literary London Conference, and such a pleasure to chair this wonderful panel on 19thC magazines feat. Natasha Bharucha and @WallTweets2 #litlon23
Loving Bethan Bide & @LucieWhitmore on ‘Fashion City: How Jewish Londoners shaped global style’ exploring problem of the Rahvis sisters (‘in the beginning the sisters concocted themselves’), Moss Bros, Carnaby Street… Literary London #litlon23
An absolutely brilliant lecture. Thank you so much Bethan Bide and @LucieWhitmore Really looking forward to seeing more of this research at the Dockland's Fashion City exhibition MuseumofLondon museumoflondon.org.uk/museum-london-…
Now #litlon23 Literary London student panel Ellen Scout Valente Libby Collard and Odile Jordan (and absent Oliver Ayres) from Northeastern U. London thinking about Ignatius Sancho's self fashioning as a gentleman and our fashioning of him as well as mapping his London
A joy to present today at Northeastern University London on Woolf, fashion & faces for Literary London & Literature and the Face: A Critical History. The opportunity to discuss shoes in detail at an academic conference has been most agreeable!
Thanks to Olly Ayers and his impressive students Ellen Scout Valente, Libby Collard and Odile Jordan who presented the similarly impressive 'Ignatius Sancho's London' project at the @literaryLondon conference Northeastern U. Northeastern University London #litlon23
Relishing Lucie Glasheen taking us round the 'Casey Court' kids' comic-noisy-anarchic theatrescapes ridiculing the failures of modern architecture, technology and working-class housing (plotlands, Peacehaven). Lots of thumbing the nose at landlords! #litlon23
