The eighteenth and nineteenth century works-in-progress group will provide a collegial forum in which graduate    students and faculty members can share work including master’s essays, book or dissertation chapters, and   
journal articles.  Our aims are to promote scholarly cross-century collaboration among
graduate students and   
faculty members and to increase the departmental presence of eighteenth and
nineteenth century studies.  
We hope that the works-in-progress group will facilitate graduate students’ professionalization by initiating    discussion about research, writing, and publication.
