Contributor Bio(s): Bareham, Terence: - Terence Bareham is Professor Emeritus of English Literature at the University of Ulster. He was educated at the Royal Grammar School, Colchester, and was Open Scholar at Lincoln College, Oxford. He taught at the University of Rhodesia, then at the University of York, and for over 30 years at the University of Ulster, as one of the founder-members of the last of the British new universities established in the 1960s. His publications include George Crabbe, a Critical Study, Malcolm Lowry in the Macmillan 'Modern Novelists' series. He co-authored George Crabbe: A Bibliography. He edited The Art of Anthony Trollope for Vision Press, and the 'Casebooks' on Trollope, and on Tom Stoppard's early plays. Elsewhere he has published widely on Shakespeare, Ouida, Charles Lever, Robert Bolt and TS Eliot. Professor Bareham is one of the organisers and a regular contributor to the annual International Conference on Literature held at Bagni di Lucca under the auspices of the University of Pisa.
