English Literature on Humanities Commons 5 years, 6 months agoThank you José Ángel! The blog “This Huge Stage” includes relevant publications in this field and all members of the group will find it very useful.

English Literature on Humanities Commons 5 years, 6 months agoOne topic in this group might be sharing new (or old, or significant) online publications by group members.

But there’s a chance that we may need to do extra online support next year too. So which resources do you find especially useful?
