What were all the novels?

Other updates include finishing a book chapter in an edited collection on Marie Corelli. My chapter is “Marie Corelli: Bestselling Decadent Author” and the edited collection is Marie Corelli in Context: Cultural Currency, Popular Fiction and the Literary Marketplace. Excited for it!

I accept on LinkedIn and only LinkedIn for undergraduates, even current students. This is because I really just post work related accomplishments on LinkedIn so it’s really impersonal.

I successfully defended my dissertation today!

And just four months later I’m at a graduation myself as a professor. It was crazy! Go Tarleton, the graduates, and most of all my colleagues who I have the pleasure to work with!

And! I’m finishing up an encyclopedia entry on Marie Corelli’s novel, The Sorrows of Satan!

I’ve got a six phase research agenda for publishing articles so be on the lookout for this and more to come.

And don’t worry, I’ll keep you apprised at every turn.

Forgot to take a picture of myself but in September I had the honor of speaking at the International Walter Pater conference at Cornell. I’ve given a talk at Cornell! It was really a dream come true. Met so many nice people too!

Pleased to tell you all that my very first publication is out! (Also I’m back!)

I’m going to give this BlueSky thing another shot.

Allow me to reintroduce myself.

I am, now, Dr. Justin Rogers, my specialty is 19th Century British literature. Specifically Decadence and Aestheticism’s use of the supernatural in fiction.

Hi Bluesky! I’m going to try using this regularly again. I have a few updates though so I apologize in advance for a ton of posting all at once.

It’s a wild time. Final edits of upcoming articles are coming along. I just got a contract for the chapter I am contributing to an edited collection. The dissertation is starting to wind down. It’s a lot but it’s also very exciting!

There is so much to read and Is this the right one? Is this what the reviewer was referring to? Do I need to read significantly in this field or topic to do what they were asking? On and on.

Trying to crowdsource here, what articles are there on Pater and impression and/or close reading?

I’m making revisions to an article so your help is much appreciated! 🙏

Dissertation is officially fully drafted, revised, sent to advisor! We’re really coming to the end, wow.

The edited collection I’m contributing to has officially been contracted by University of Edinburgh Press. 👀 More to come.

I got invited to do an article to a special issue on Lafcadio Hearn. I put his writing on art and how you can see it at work in his fiction alongside another writer’s art criticism and fiction to show how Hearn can bring a lot to the conversation as a European who moved to Japan.

I got an “accepted with revisions”. My article is on this children’s book The Enchanted Castle (1907) by Edith Nesbit and I argue that in it she anticipates cognitive science regarding imagination in children and how they harness their imagination to reach higher order thinking.

#19write We should bring it back here!

And my dissertation will hopefully be coming to an end and in the summer I’ll work on making articles out of it so you’ll all get a chance to read the last… four years of my life. *sigh*

Art and Abyss: Aestheticism, Decadence, and the Supernatural in Late Victorian Literature

2025 at least the first few months here are going to be so busy.

I have revisions for two article due in February and my dissertation defense is in early March.

If all of that is successful I’ll be so happy. I just hope I can do it.
