Please join us for a behind-the-scenes talk in our Library with University of Delaware Professor Margaret D. Stetz about the "Yellow Book," the British quarterly literary periodical that was published in London from 1894 to 1897. During this talk, attendees will have the opportunity to see DelArt’s rare copies of the "Yellow Book." This talk will be of particular interest to visitors interested in DelArt’s Pre-Raphaelite collection.
Margaret D. Stetz is the Mae and Robert Carter Professor of Women’s Studies and Professor of Humanities at the University of Delaware, as well as a specialist in art and literature of the British 1890s.
