Felicity A. Nussbaum, Distinguished Professor of English at the University of California, Los Angeles, has published Rival Queens: Actresses, Performance, and the Eighteenth-Century British Theatre and The Arabian Nights in Historical Context with Saree Makdisi, among other books. A former president of the American Society for Eighteenth Century Studies, she has held NEH, Guggenheim, and Rockefeller Foundation Fellowships. She is currently writing plays on Hester Thrale Piozzi and Lady Mary Wortley Montagu. Laura Brown is the John Wendell Anderson Professor of English at Cornell. She has served as President of the American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies. And she is the author of seven books-engaging variously with drama and performance, women and imperialist ideology, sewers and oceans, lapdogs and monkeys, and now earthquakes, storms, and what she is calling the eco-other in eighteenth-century literature. The latter is the topic of her most recent book, The Counterhuman Imaginary: Earthquakes, Lapdogs, and Traveling Coinage in Eighteenth-Century Literature, published in 2023.
