Info autore

Sally Bushell is Professor of Romantic and Victorian Literature and Co-Director of The Wordsworth Centre in the Department of English Literature and Creative Writing, Lancaster University. She has long had an interest in Wordsworth. Her first book, Re-Reading The Excursion (2002), sought to open up the text to new readings, followed by her co-editing of the Cornell Excursion (2007) and her second monograph: Text as Process: Creative Composition in Wordsworth, Tennyson and Dickinson (2009), which explored the margins of textuality by developing a method for interpreting works in a state of process. A strong interest in place and space in literature has recently led her into research around the question of how the reader spatialises literature with a forthcoming monograph (Cambridge. 2020) on Reading and Mapping Fiction. She is also interested in digital and spatial projects for the mapping of literature and is PI on the AHRC-Funded project: Chronotopic Cartographies and has developed an educational project using Minecraft to map literary worlds (LITCRAFT).
