Nicolas Valazza is Assistant Professor of French at Indiana University, Bloomington. He has published articles on the interrelation between painting and literature, and is currently completing a book manuscript, entitled "Crise de plume et souveraineté du pinceau", which explores the development of French art criticism throughout the nineteenth century in light of the paradigm of "sovereignty" of painting. His new research interests focus on Francophone clandestine literature under the Second Empire. Email: nvalazza@indiana.edu.

Robert W. Rix has published extensively on several aspects of the eighteenth century, including lexicography, poetry, political satire, and the history of print. His book William Blake and the Culture of Radical Christianity (2007) examines how Blake and his contemporaries re-appropriated the sources they read within new cultural and political frameworks. He has recently completed a three-year research grant on Norse mythology and its impact on Anglophone writing of the romantic era. This is a cultural exchange for which little critical literature was previously available. After publishing several articles on the topic, he has prepared an anthology of primary texts entitled Norse Themes in British Literature, 1760-1832, due out later in 2011 as an electronic edition on the Romantic Circles website (http://www.rc.umd.edu/). After a number of years at the University of Copenhagen, Rix has recently moved to the University of Aalborg, Denmark. Email: rjrix@hum.ku.dk. [End Page 165]
