Biography
During his long and distinguished academic career teaching English in many British and overseas institutions, Professor Geoffrey Bullough (1901-1982) amassed a large collection of nineteenth- and early twentieth century literary texts, many of which represent his interest in minor Victorian novelists.
In 1922, Geoffrey Bullough received a first-class honours degree in English Literature from the University of Manchester, and the following year completed his MA before becoming a school teacher. He then returned to Manchester, moving on to the University of Edinburgh in 1929. From 1933, he spent 13 years as Professor of English at the University of Sheffield before moving on to King's College London.
