About Timothy H. Scherman

Nineteenth-century Americanist also doing research and writing on postmodern literature, music and culture.  Over the last decade, my emphasis has been on materialist approaches to these things.

My longer term (let's just say life) work has been the recovery of the life and work of Elizabeth Oakes Smith (1806-93) (www.oakes-smith.org). Much of what I'll post here will be papers dedicated to that effort. Spring Term, 2021 I am giving a full online seminar on Oakes Smith's work, emphasizing methods of recovery and the particular (sometimes large) empty places in our record of her life and career.
