is the information list and announcement companion to OSCHOLARS - the group of electronic journals dedicated to scholarly information and ideas about the writers and artists of the fin-de-siècle, notably Oscar Wilde, George Bernard Shaw, James McNeill Whistler, George Moore, Vernon Lee, Michael Field and John Ruskin. Latterly we have been developing modules on the visual arts, late Victorian Gothic, the New Woman, and the fin-de-siècle in Italy. All are housed at www.oscholars.com. See also the oscholars Facebook page.

As well as submissions, we welcome information on all aspects of the fin-de-siècle, including CfPs and news of publications.

'Hits' on our site since 1st January 2008 (when records began)have been well over 1,300,000, the 2010 monthly average just over 45,000.

We also host the website of the Conference 'The Reception of Oscar Wilde in Europe', Trinity College, Oxford, March 2008. The pages we created then are being developed to complement the recent volume of the same name. Finally, we are participating in the campaign to save Conan Doyle's house: see www.undershawalliance.com.

While anyone can view posts to oscholarship, posting facilities are limited to subscribers. We welcome your comments and announcements of your own research, publications or papers on the period 1880-1910: use the subject line with precision.

We exercise strict control over messages, and you will not receive any information about strange practices, bogus products or imaginary wealth. Messages are also moderated for relevance, and must not include 'tails' of previous messages.
