Charles Dickens and Authors!Authors!

Charles Dickens Lecture

In observance of the Bicentennial Birthday of the late Charles Dickens (1812-2012), please join scholar Dr. Melissa Valiska Gregory for an informative talk which focuses on the enduring popularity of Dickens’ famous novels, while exploring his journalism and literary collaborations from 6:30-7:30 p.m. on Monday, February 20 in the McMaster Center at Main Library, 325 Michigan St.

In observance of the Bice

Dr. Gregory , Ph.D, is an Associate Professor as well as the Honors Advisor for the University of Toledo’s English Language and Literature Department. She specializes in 19th century British literature and has published articles on both Victorian poetry and the novel. Dr. Gregory has edited and introduced three of Charles Dickens’ collaboratively written Christmas stories for Hesperus Press—The Wreck of the Golden Mary (2006), Somebody’s Luggage (2006), and Dr. Marigold’s Prescriptions (2007)—and has also coauthored an original brief biography of Dickens (2008).

Also, enjoy a special exhibit in Main Library’s Humanities department titled 200 Years of Dickens: Author of Social Reform . This display, on view now through March 31 , focuses on “Dickens’ London” and the author’s history as a reformer and social activist.

This program is FREE and open to the public.  Be sure to check out materials on Dickens at the Toledo-Lucas County Public Library.
