Stella, the social justice warrior; in Nightmare Abbey by Thomas Love Peacock  (1818)

Microlectures and readings from English literature; by Michael Blackburn, writer, poet, retired lecturer.

A traditional approach to the appreciation of literature. English Readings comprises two strands. The first is brief lectures/podcasts on specific texts or authors which may, I hope, prove of some interest to students and those with a love of English literature; the second is short readings of extracts from texts that may not be so well-known but which deserve a wider readership. These podcasts are also available on iTunes (also as EnglishReadings).
