Notes on contributor
Howard Carlton is a doctoral candidate in Modern History at the University of Birmingham. His thesis explores several nineteenth-century astronomical controversies in order to examine the relationship between Victorian religion and science by considering how the subject’s relationship with these epistemologies was influenced by their personal journeys through the events of their lives. It also examines the currently understated influences of astronomy and astrophysics on nineteenth-century concepts of the duration and nature of time.
