Future Writing Projects

For the foreseeable future my research and publications activity will concentrate on the lives and writings of Wyndham Lewis and George Orwell. I have longer-term interests in the work of Aldous Huxley, in higher education policy around interdisciplinarity, and in the cultural and institutional status of polymathy.
