Dr Felicity Henderson

Senior Lecturer
English and Creative Writing

My broad topic is 17th century intellectual culture, and within this I am interested in early-modern institutions (particularly the universities and the early Royal Society) and the circulation of ideas through manuscript, image and print. You can find me in room 202, Queen's.


Research supervision:

I would be pleased to hear from prospective graduate students interested in research in the following areas (generally but not exclusively focussed on the early-modern period):

  • history of science; literature and science;
  • manuscript and print culture;
  • scholarly editing;
  • satire;
  • visual and material culture;
  • life-writing;
  • translation;
  • collections and the history of collecting.
