SUMMARY:Science and Victorian Periodical Culture in H.G. Wells’s "The Tim
 e Machine"
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, David Shackleton will situate Wells’s early sc
 ientific romance in the context of Victorian periodical culture\, reading 
 its various versions in The Science School Journal\, the National Observer
  and the New Review alongside Wells’s early journalism on scientific sub
 jects\, and alongside articles on scientific subjects in periodicals more 
 generally. In particular\, he will argue that situating The Time Machine 
 in the hitherto overlooked context of geology provides insight into the r
 omance’s central conceit of time travel\, the ruined architecture of it
 s future age\, and the work’s fragmentary aesthetic.
