Discovering Ann Radcliffe

20 Mar 2023 10:00

Ann Radcliffe was one of the highest paid authors of the 18th century, so why don’t we know about her today?

Professor Angela Wright is one of two general editors of the complete works of Ann Radcliffe. Along with Dr Rosie Whitcombe, PhD student Samiha Begum and undergraduate students Charlie Roker and Jamie Creese from the School of English, we explore who Ann Radcliffe was, and what makes her unique.
