| Summary: | Enterprises such as the Archive, or, for that matter, even old-fashioned print journals such as this one, are usually created and sustained by the arduous, un-glamourous work of a few idealistic individuals, whom our profession seldom thanks and never honors. [...]probably because we are trained to criticize, criticism comes all too easily to us, and disguised as "disciplinary selfcriticism" (which always condemns the practice or principles of someone other than the criticizer) professional jealousy, spite, and fear dominate our discourse, in part because they, in Wordsworth's phrase, "never hear the sound of their own names." Because of our NEH-funded Summer Institutes on Evaluating Digital Scholarship in 2011 and 2012, NINES has created a scholarship program with the Digital Humanities Summer Institute (DHSI) at University of Victoria in lieu of hosting our own event. "The development of a number of projects based in the Romantic period (The English Novel, 1770-1829; The English Novel, 1830-1836; A Database of British Fiction, 1800-1830) consolidated the research taking place in the CEIR, with Cardiff Corvey, the journal, providing a focus for Romantic-studies research and as an online journal. Since 2005, CEIR-specific material has been presented on its own website, while the journal was relaunched as Romantic Textualities: Literature and Print Culture, 1780-1840. (www.romtext.org.uk) POPULAR ROMANTICISM Popular Romanticism (www.romtext.org.uk) as reported by David Buchanan in Romantic Textualities, is an open access online resource for the study of print and reading in the Romantic period.

Since 2014, PDR Press, has annually published selected essays in fine print books and, since 2016, New Editions, bea_168.tifully designed reprints and reworkings of public domain material. |
