Professor Mary Mullen will participate in the 2022 Ahmanson-Getty Postdoctoral Roundtable on “Cultivating Space: Land, Literature, and Art of the Long Nineteenth Century" online on Friday, May 13 from 3:00-500 pm EST.
This interdisciplinary roundtable discussion will investigate the enclosure, colonization, cultivation, and “improvement” of land throughout the nineteenth century and beyond. The roundtable will bring together papers on art, literature, and history to explore how the physical transformation of land across Britain and its former empire in turn transformed its broader cultural landscape.
The title of Professor Mullen's paper is "Rocks and Referentiality, Ireland and Palestine."
