Christina Rossetti was born #otd in 1830. Her poem 'In the Bleak Midwinter' was originally published by Scribners in January 1872 as 'A Christmas Carol'. Gustav Holst set it to music in 1906. It was my father's favourite! @wikivictorian.bsky.social @19birkbeck.bsky.social

Sad that my damaged ankle precludes me presenting some magic lantern slides at QMUL tomorrow night, but here's a damaged but stunning slide to compensate. The aerialist is unidentified but is possibly Ella Zuila as another slide in the set shows her riding her velocipede on the wire.

Hi again Victorianist peeps! It's lovely to follow so many folks doing such fascinating work. Also to see lots of old friends. I'm re-upping this because VIC has been so quiet lately, and yet it's a great place for longer-form C19 queries, answers, and discussions than can easily be posted here.
Warm welcome to all new followers! To my fellow Victorianists: the VICTORIA discussion group remains a generous, welcoming space, supportive without at all overwhelming your inbox. And the archives are a great resource. If you’re not already a member, check it out: list.iu.edu/sympa/info/v...

Our seminar with Nasser Mufti today generated a fantastic discussion around key ideas in his WIP ‘Looking West Again: Decolonization and the Invention of Britain’s Nineteenth Century’, and how these ideas crystallise through rereading C.L.R. James and V. S. Naipaul #QMPocoSeminar

This was a fabulous event! Beautiful singing and fascinating context for the carols. Made my Monday a bit less Monday
Looking forward to introducing another Victorian secularist song as part of the this evening's @c19qmul.bsky.social Carols in Context event. Alongside more familiar pieces, we'll be singing 'Sympathy.' Two verses received Gladstone's own tick of approval in his copy held at @gladlib.bsky.social
