Peter Walmsley
Professor, English & Cultural Studies

My research engages British and colonial literatures and cultures of the long eighteenth century (1660-1830), with a focus on histories of science and technology. I currently have a particular interest in representations of Indigenous craft and in plant-human intimacies in colonial botany.

I welcome supervisees interested in pursuing research on any topic related to the literatures and cultures of the Enlightenment and Romantic periods. I also serve on supervisory committees in the areas of Early Modern and Victorian literatures and the Environmental Humanities.
