Peter Garside was educated at Cambridge and Harvard Universities, and taught English Literature for more than thirty years at Cardiff University, where became Professor of English and Director of the Centre for Editorial and Intertextual Research. Subsequently he was appointed Professor of Bibliography and Textual Studies at the University of Edinburgh. He has served on the Boards of Edinburgh Edition of the Waverley Novels and the Stirling / South Carolina Collected Editions of the Works of James Hogg, and has produced three volume apiece for each of these scholarly editions. He was one of the general editors of the ground-breaking bibliographical survey, The English Novel, 1770-1830, 2 vols (OUP, 2000), and directed the AHRB-funded online database, British Fiction, 1800-1829 (2004). Since retirement, he has continued to work on aspects of Romantic Studies, Scottish Literature, the Novel, and Book History. Karen O'Brien is Vice-Principal (Education) and Professor of English Literature in the Department of English. She studied at the Sorbonne for a year before attending Oxford University where she graduated with a BA in English Literature and a D.Phil. She was awarded a Harkness Fellowship which she spent as a visiting fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, followed by a Research Fellowship at Peterhouse, Cambridge. She has held academic posts at the Universities of Southampton, Cardiff, and Warwick. Her research is in the area of the literature and intellectual history of the Enlightenment, with a particular focus on historical writing, imperial thought, ideas and debates about gender equality and (most recently) the history of the novel and Thomas Robert Malthus.
