Summary:Originating in a round-table discussion at the 2019 North American Victorian Studies Association's conference in Columbus, Ohio, the essays gathered here explore topics that range from early photographs of vocal chords and the enforcement of silence in prisons to the surprising role played by stammered speech in an attempted assassination of Queen Victoria. In making this choice, the commit-tee members were impressed by the ways in which the essay compelled us to rethink the familiar contours of the male/female opposition by way of a wealth of archival research and the analysis of newspaper archives. [...]it is my great pleasure to announce four new additions to the Editorial Advisory Board: Pamela Gilbert (University of Florida), Nathan Hensley (Georgetown University), Lorraine Janzen Kooistra (Ryerson University), and Sally Shuttleworth (St. Anne's College, University of Oxford).
