My main research interests include British Romantic literature as well as the Anglo-Hispanic literary and cultural exchanges. I have published widely on S. T. Coleridge’s poetical thought, and on the influence of romantic authors such as  W. Blake, S. T. Coleridge, W. Wordsworth and E. A. Poe on the literary production of some twentieth-century Spanish authors. I have also delved into the presence of Spanish literature in British Romanticism in the context of the project LHIBRO “Hispanic Literature in the British Romantic Periodical Press (1802-1832): Appropriating and Rewriting the Canon” (RTI2018-097450-B-I00) (PI1 Perojo Arronte, PI2 Flores Moreno). The project’s main results were published in the volume British Periodicals and Spanish Literature: Mapping the Romantic Canon (Peter Lang, 2022) edited by Perojo Arronte and myself. I’m also interested in exploring travel writing in relation to the Anglo-Hispanic cultural connections and have recently conducted research on R. Southey’s and H. Hemingway’s narratives about their experiences in Spain. Currently, I’m working on the social dynamics of the Anglo-Hispanic literary exchange during the Romantic period in the context of the project LHIBRO II.

My areas of research are related to the history of books during the 18th century, with special interest in the circulation of Spanish books and ideas in the Europe of the Enlightenment. Some of my publications in this field are: El correo de la Ilustración. Libros y lecturas en la correspondencia entre Cavanilles y el librero parisino Fournier (1790-1802) (Madrid: Ollero y Ramos, 2013); Spanish books in the Europe of the Enlightenment (Paris and London). A View from Abroad (Leyden: Brill, 2018); ‘La España de Alatriste. Libros españoles en las librerías londinenses del siglo XVIII’. El libro español en Londres. La visión de España en Inglaterra (siglos XVI al XIX) (Universitat de València, 2016); ‘The circulation of books and ideas between Spain and England at the end of the 18th century: the correspondence of Cavanilles with Joseph Banks and James Edward Smith’ (Histoire et civilisation du livre, XIX, 2023).

I am a scholar in English Romanticism, specializing in the intersection of literature and aesthetics, with an emphasis on Mary Shelley. In my monograph Lo sublime, lo gótico y lo romántico, I explore aesthetic categories during the Romantic period, laying the foundation for my subsequent work. As part of my studies in reception, I translated and edited H.D. Inglis’s Andanzas tras los pasos de don Quijote. In the same line, I have published several chapters and articles, such as “The Reception of P. B. Shelley in Spain”, “Re-Discovering Spain: English Travellers and the Picturesque Tour” and “The Reception of Frankenstein in Spain by the Hand of Its Illustrators”. Other publications include “Embellishing the Poetic Text: Felicia Hemans and Female Aesthetic Education in the Nineteenth-Century British Annuals” and “Representations of the Female in the Spanish Illustrated Editions of Frankenstein”. I am also an active member of the interdisciplinary research group LyA (Literature and Art), as a result of which I published Painting Words: Aesthetics and the Relationship between Image and Text.

My main research interest is in Anglo-Spanish historical and cultural relations in the nineteenth century and, more particularly, in the representations of Spain in British print culture, the reception of Spanish literature in British Romanticism and the literary activities of the liberal exiles in London (1823-1833). In this field I have published a monograph, José Joaquín de Mora and Britain: Cultural Transfers and Transformations (Peter Lang, 2022), and several articles and book chapters. Recent publications include "Challenging the Canon: Spanish Exiles’ Articles on Spanish Literature in British Periodicals (1823–1834)" (in British Periodicals and Spanish Literature: Mapping the Romantic Canon, eds. Mª Eugenia Perojo Arronte and Cristina Flores Moreno, 2022), "Blanco White’s Translations from El conde Lucanor: Two Medieval Spanish Tales in Romantic Britain" (Atlantis, 2022) and "Spanish Women in British Literary Annuals (1823-1830)" (Alicante Journal of English Studies, 2024).

My current areas of research are British Romantic literature and criticism, and the Anglo-Hispanic literary and cultural exchange in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. I have directed with Cristina Flores Moreno the research project LHIBRO I (La literatura hispánica en la prensa periódica británica del Romanticismo, 1802-1832, ref. RTI2018-097450-B-I00), funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities from 2019 to 2022. As a result of the project, we edited the volume British Periodicals and Spanish Literature. Mapping the Romantic Canon (Peter Lang, 2022), which included my chapter “Shifting Views on the Political Nation: A Comparison of British and Spanish Criticism of Spanish Ballads”. From 2016 to 2021, I was the co-editor of the journal ES Review.

I hold an International Doctorate (with Honours) in Hispanic Literature from the University of Navarra, where I was awarded a scholarship to participate in the project "Edición de los autos sacramentales completos de Calderón", carried out by the research group GRISO. Currently, I pursue two lines of research: one focused on literature and the other combining literature and education. These include Spanish Golden Age theater, particularly autos sacramentales, and the didactics of literature. The results of these studies have been published in high-impact journals, books, and book chapters by prestigious publishers, such as Hipogrifo, Revista de Filología Española, Edad de Oro, Anuario calderoniano, and publishers like Reichenberger and Peter Lang.

Professor Fulford’s research lies in the area of literature in the Romantic era, in the contexts of colonialism, exploration, science, landscape, the picturesque, and religion. He has published many articles and books on these topics, featuring such writers as William Wordsworth, S. T. Coleridge, Robert Bloomfield, Mary Robinson, William Cowper, Jane Austen, and John Clare. Professor Fulford is currently preparing scholarly editions of Robert Southey’s narrative about Spanish colonialism, The Expedition of Orsua; and The Crimes of Aguirre (1810/21). His most recent monograph is a study of Wordsworth’s Late Poetry entitled Dialogues with the Dead (Cambridge, 2023). He is the co-editor of editions of the letters of Humphry Davy, Robert Southey, and Thomas Beddoes.

Ian Haywood is Professor of English at Roehampton University, London. He has written extensively on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century British radicalism and its impact on literary and visual culture. His publications include The Revolution in Popular Literature (2004), Bloody Romanticism (2006), Romanticism and Caricature (2013), Spain in British Romanticism (2018, co-edited with Diego Daglia), Romanticism and Illustration (2019, co-edited with Mary Shannon and Susan Matthews), The Rise of Victorian Caricature (2020) and Queen Caroline and the Power of Caricature in Georgian England (2023). His next monograph project is Frankenstein and Romantic Visual Culture (contracted with Bloomsbury). He was President of the British Association for Romantic Studies 2015-19, and co-ordinates the Romantic Illustration Network (https://romanticillustrationnetwork.com).

I specialise in Spanish, Anglo-Spanish and Galician cultural history since 1800, with particular expertise in the history of Hispanic communities in the UK. My books include Writing Galicia into the World (Liverpool UP, 2011); Mondariz-Vigo-Santiago: A Brief History of Galician’s Edwardian Tourist Boom (Fundación Mondariz-Balneario, 2013), and The Edwardians and the Making of a Modern Spanish Obsession (Liverpool UP, 2020). I’m currently finishing a book funded by a Leverhulme Trust Major Research Fellowship, called Hispanic London: Culture, Commerce, and Community in the Nineteenth-Century City. I’m a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and a Membro Correspondente of the Real Academia Galega.

I am a lecturer in Spanish Literature at the University of Cádiz, where I pursue research on several aspects of eighteenth and nineteenth-century Spanish literature and culture. I am interested in the literary production of the nineteenth-century Spanish exile in Britain, and in particular the way in which Romantic images of Spanish identity were constructed as part of a transatlantic exchange in which Spanish exile voices had a major role. Some publications in this area include the edition (together with Gregorio Alonso) of the 2011 volume Londres y el liberalismo hispánico (Iberoamericana Vervuert), as well as several articles and chapters on the English-language work of Spanish exiles such as José María Blanco White, Valentín de Llanos or Telésforo de Trueba. Other recent outputs in this area include a book chapter on the British reception of Fernán Caballero in ( “A more genuine and healthy tone in Spanish Literature: Fernán Caballero in Britain”, in British periodicals and Spanish literature: mapping the romantic canon, Peter Lang, 2022).

My main research includes the figure of the unreliable narrator in contemporary Irish literature, with especial interest in its relationship to trauma, memory, and guilt. I have taken part in several national and international conferences presenting papers from these and other fields, and I have also published articles on gender and identity in Iris Murdoch’s The Black Prince, identity and masculinities in film, or war and trauma in Ian McEwan’s Atonement. My most recent publication is on gender, trauma and shame in the works of Sally Rooney. My Doctoral Thesis won the Inés Praga Award (AEDEI) in 2022 for the best thesis in Irish Studies.

My research concentrates on Spanish-Dutch-Anglo relations and cultural exchanges in the early modern period and beyond (1550-1850), with a focus on the intersection between literature, politics, history and ideology, nation-building processes and cross-cultural dynamics of representation. These lines of research came clearly to the fore in my research project Mixed feelings. Literary Hispanophilia and Hispanophobia in England and the Netherlands in the Early Modern period and the Nineteenth century, funded by the Dutch Research Council NWO (2015-2021). This project focused on how the two narratives of literary hispanophobia and hispanophilia co-existed in the Early Modern period and re-emerged in the nineteenth century, when national identities and literary canons consolidated the Golden Age as the key period in the national-historical consciousness.

I teach and research English Literature at the University of Parma (Italy) and one of my main areas of study is concerned with Anglo-Hispanic relations in Romantic-period literature and culture. In this area, I have published two monographs titled Byron and Spain: Itinerary in the Writing of Place (1996) and Poetic Castles in Spain: British Romanticism and Figurations of Iberia (2000) as well as co-edited, with Ian Haywood, a volume of essays titled Spain and British Romanticism 1800-1840 (2018). My essays on Anglo-Hispanic topics have appeared in several edited books and international scholarly journals. I sit on the advisory committee of the Byron Museum in Ravenna (Italy) and I am the current director of the Centro Interuniversitario per lo Studio del Romanticismo (CISR). Among my latest publications are European Literatures in Britain, 1815-1832: Romantic Translations (2019) and Modernità del romanticismo: scrittura e cambiamento nella letteratura britannica 1780-1830 (2023).

I have been granted a predoctoral contract by the Junta de Castilla y León and the European Social Fund Plus to carry out my doctoral thesis, which explores the representation of Spain in nineteenth-century British travel literature. Before the predoctoral contract, I worked as a Substitute Professor and as an Associate Professor at the University of Valladolid. I hold an MA in Secondary Education and Language Teaching from the University of Valladolid and an MA in Historical Heritage from the University of Castilla-La Mancha, for which I received the Extraordinary Master’s Degree Award.

My main research interests are 18th and 19th-Century Spanish literature and culture, from the perspective of Anglo-Spanish relations, with a particular interest in the textual and material exchanges between both countries and in the periodical press of the period. Some of the publications in this field are: Anglomanía: la imagen de Inglaterra en la prensa española del siglo XVIII (Woodbridge: Tamesis Books, 2019), and more recently, 'Bosquejos de Andalucía en la prensa británica del siglo XIX: del discurso romántico al discurso colonial' (Andalucía y lo andaluz en los siglos XVIII y XIX: representación, crítica y creación de estereotipos. Peter Lang, 2023). My current project, ‘Approaches to Teaching the #EarlyModernHispanicWorld to 21st-Century Students’, focuses on how to engage students with the pre-modern Hispanic world and how to make these texts more accessible to today’s learners whilst also retaining the essential differences of another culture and another era.
