Linda Peterson was a major force in the field of Victorian studies whose work transformed the study of autobiography, poetry, journalism, and women’s writing. The Research Society for Victorian Periodicals is grateful for her ground-breaking work on nineteenth-century periodical journalism. To honor her crucial contribution to our scholarly community—and to highlight the ongoing resonance of her research—a special issue of VPR is planned for the summer of 2017.
