The Nineteenth Century Forum cordially invites you to join us in welcoming Dehn Gilmore, Professor of English at the California Institute of Technology and author of The Victorian Novel and the Space of Art: Fictional Form on Display.

Professor Gilmore's research centers on the relationship between Victorian literature and culture. Her current book project, "Large as Life": The Victorians' Disproportionate Reality, examines the Victorian obsession with "life-sized" representation and how this obsession both shaped and was shaped by Victorian ideas of political representation, scientific research, artistic depiction, and novelistic realism.
