Frederik Van Dam is Assistant Professor of European Literature at Radboud University Nijmegen. He is the author of Anthony Trollope’s Late Style: Victorian Liberalism and Literary Form (EUP, 2016) and has recently edited a special issue on literature and economics in the European Journal of English Studies (2017). He is currently working on a literary history of diplomacy from the Congress of Vienna up to the present.

Frederik Van Dam’s Anthony Trollope’s Late Style establishes its author as a brilliant leading expert globally on Anthony Trollope. It is far more than just an analysis of Trollope’s late style and presents wonderfully detailed readings of Trollope’s late works (1875 and onwards). It　is a superb book in every way.
