SUMMARY:Dickensland: The Curious History of Dickens's London
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Santa Cruz Dickens Fellowship and the Santa Cruz Pickwick Club for our June Pickwick Club talk by author and historian Lee Jackson who will be discussing Dickens’s London. \nLee Jackson\, author of Dickensland (Yale\, 2023) will discuss the curious history of London’s Dickensian tourist destinations. Louisa May Alcott\, visiting in 1866\, was typical of the innumerable American tourists who would arrive in subsequent decades\, enraptured by the dream-like quality of the Victorian metropolis seen through a Dickensian lens (‘I felt as if I’d got into a novel’). But did tourists truly encounter ‘Dickens’s London’ or merely a ‘Dickensland’ shaped by the demands of Dickens fandom (dubbed by Victorian newspapers ‘The Dickens Cult’) and canny heritage entrepreneurs? \n \n  \nLee Jackson is an author and historian\, creator of the popular online sourcebook of Victoriana ‘The Dictionary of Victorian London‘ and an academic advisor to the Charles Dickens Museum. His previous non-fiction books include Dirty Old London (Yale\, 2014) and Palaces of Pleasure (Yale\, 2019). \nIf you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out at dpj@ucsc.edu

SUMMARY:Dickens and Victorian Psychology: Introspection\, First-Person Narration\, and the Mind by Tyson Stolte
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Santa Cruz Dickens Fellowship and the Santa Cruz Pickwick Club for our May Pickwick Club talk by Associate Professor Tyson Stolte (New Mexico State University) who will be discussing Dickens and Victorian Psychology. \nDickens and Victorian Psychology returns Dickens’s fiction to the midst of nineteenth-century debates about the nature of the mind\, reading Dickens’s experiments with first-person point of view as part of his larger effort to insist upon a dualist psychology in the face of new physiological theories of consciousness. While psycho-physiology was widely seen by Victorian readers as a materialist threat to belief in our immortality\, Dickens’s incorporation into his fiction of the introspection that remained the key methodology for dualist psychologies allowed him to insist upon the irreducibility of consciousness—and the possibility of the mind’s surviving the body. Through a reading of The Mystery of Edwin Drood\, however\, this talk will also show how psycho-physiologists worked to drain the shared language of Victorian psychology of any meaning beyond the physical\, making it ever more difficult to theorize a psychology that transcended the here and now. \n\n\n \n\nTyson Stolte is an associate professor in the Department of English at New Mexico State University. His book Dickens and Victorian Psychology: Introspection\, First-Person Narration\, and the Mind was published by Oxford University Press in 2022. He has also published articles on such topics as Dickens\, Robert Browning\, Edward FitzGerald\, Victorian psychology\, and nineteenth-century theories of matter and energy.

SUMMARY:38th Annual Dickens Universe Conference featuring Little Dorrit
DESCRIPTION:The Dickens Universe is a unique cultural event that brings together scholars\, teachers\, students\, and members of the general public for a week of stimulating discussion and festive social activity on the beautiful Santa Cruz campus of the University of California—all focused on one or two Victorian novels\, usually (but not always) one by Charles Dickens. \nView our full event photo album on Flickr: \nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n  \nIn 2018\, the Universe featured Little Dorrit by Charles Dickens. Full of contrasts—light and shade\, comedy and pathos—Little Dorrit is one of the great social novels of the Victorian age. It takes as its central themes the prison of this lower world\, the vicissitudes of love in middle age and the inescapable power of money. Intricately plotted and full of Dickensian humor and sentiment\, the novel displays a broad social vision and remarkable psychological insight. \nNow in its 38th year of operation\, the Dickens Universe combines features of a scholarly conference\, a festival\, a book club\, and summer camp. Participants include people of all ages and walks of life—distinguished scholars\, graduate students\, undergraduates\, retirees\, young professionals\, high school teachers\, anyone who loves to read and who enjoys long Victorian novels. Here are some of the things that make the Universe such a special experience: \n\nThe college lifestyle: participants live on campus\, eat together in the student dining hall\, have time to meet and come to know each other in different ways.\nEveryone is reading the same book. We all have this one important thing in common.\nThe range of activities—formal lectures\, small discussion groups\, films\, daily Victorian teas\, performances\, and Victorian dancing.\n\nThe Universe offers a week of total immersion in the world of Victorian fiction with friendly\, like-minded colleagues in a beautiful setting. Whether we’re returning to a Dickens novel that everyone knows and loves\, or branching out into a Victorian novel by another author who might be less familiar\, during the Universe we build a community out of our passion for reading\, talking with one another\, and bringing Victorian culture to life. \nMore information and registration: \nGeneral Website: https://dickens.ucsc.edu/\nRegistration Link: https://dickens.ucsc.edu/universe/registration/index.html\nPhone: (831) 459-2103\nEmail: cmahaney@ucsc.edu\nVideo Link: https://youtu.be/JJgV87yGBSs
