Gothicists on Humanities Commons 7 years, 5 months agoThe late Victorian era was imbued with progressive scientific reform and palpable anxiety regarding the future of the British empire.

The space to upload that image is on the bottom right of your post’s editing page. I think I’m thinking about the same image space as you are, but if I’m talking about something else, please let me know! Hope…[Read more]

Humanities Commons Summer Camp on Humanities Commons 7 years, 6 months agoI didn’t realize I could create a whole separate website using the Humanities Commons, so this Summer Camp has been very useful to me. I’ve been trying to figure out a space to host Virtual Hemingway, a digital project consisting of more than 250 links to (mostly reputable) Hemingway-related material online.
