The new issue of 19 revisits 'the early history of what has become Birkbeck...to reconstruct traditions and early networks of radical thinking', and 'urges renewed thinking to reinvent literature’s present and future among the disciplines'.

What's your favourite Victorian Object to contribute to a discussion of the lives of Victorian Objects? Maybe it is in your cupboard or your drawer; maybe it's unattainable, far away, trapped in an archive... but you can bring a photo to @birkbeck_arts on 10 May
