Dr Jennie Batchelor (Reader in Eighteenth Century Studies and Co-Director of the Centre for Studies in the Long Eighteenth Century) has been awarded a prestigious Leverhulme Grant for her research project ‘The Lady’s Magazine (1770-1818): understanding the emergence of a genre’. The project will examine the historical and cultural significance of one of the most influential periodicals of its day (and precursor of the modern women’s magazine). One of the aims of the project is to ‘revise conceptions of Romantic-era print culture’. The award was featured in detail in the Times Higher Education on 22 May.
