Sharing link to the Modernist Editing Symposium @buxiduan.bsky.social and Lawrence Jones are organizing in Reading. I blandly titled my talk 'Modernist Editing in Perspective'. Hope what I have to say is more palatable. research.reading.ac.uk/centre-for-b... #scholarlyediting #modernism

Absolutely honoured to be invited to present my current research on Nancy Pearn at the next #DHLawrenceHappyHour event! Pearn was more than Lawrence's 'golden [...] magazine girl' - she was a leading literary agent.
