Today's #GoodBadPoem offers you terrible poetry with a knowing wink. How DO you rhyme "bicycle" when the "Two-Wheeled Steed" seemed so modern? This poem was published in *Chambers's Journal* on 4 June 1870 & it's one of the DVPP team favourites. #VictorianPoetry #Victorian pic.twitter.com/sTDx…

#CharityTuesday Gustave Doré's powerful scene of a nun carrying a child to the safety of a convent during the Siege of Paris, 1870-71. It's a large painting which really draws you in. You can see bloodstains by the wall and fire in the background. victorianweb.org/pai… pic.twitter.com/ttKB…

My special issue of Victorian Review Forum (45.1) is out! It's on an embarrassing topic (bodily fluids in the nineteenth century)! It's my PhD student's first publication! It's the first time I've ever edited anything! Everyone read it! muse.jhu.edu/issue/4…

Mandell Creighton died #otd in 1901. He held various positions in the church including that of Bishop of London but is chiefly remembered as an historian, editor, academic and author of books such as the multivolume History of the Papacy. pic.twitter.com/rFsn…

Next year's equivalent of my current job at @UniOfSurrey is open for applications - 3 years of supported research time (open to ECRs <6 years out of their PhD). I recommend the opportunity! It would lovely to have another Humanities scholar: details at jobs.ac.uk/job/BXV25…

Today's #MastheadMonday is the True Sun (1832-1837). It was founded by Patrick Grant due to his feud with Murdo Young, who he believed had swindled him out of ownership of the Sun newspaper. Charles Dickens was briefly the paper's Parliamentary reporter. @BL_MadeDigital pic.twitter.com/DFXU…
