@FernRiddell Hello 👋🏻 I’ve worked a lot on 19/20th century working-class writers in Scotland and north of England (weavers, miners, industrial workers who published poetry/prose/autobiographies) and neglected Scottish women writers too!
Chuffed to invite you all to the inaugural Humanities Symposium at @UniStrathclyde. Looking forward to reading your papers and seeing you all there in September 🙌
