Volume 83 of Cahiers victoriens et édouardiens is a four-section issue with a collection of articles selected from three different conferences and a section with a complementary article on Eliza Cook. Two contributions came from the SAES Conference which was held in Caen in May 2014 (‘Crossings’), six papers were given during the annual SFEVE conference which was held in Perpignan in January 2015 (‘The South’), convened by Isabelle Cases, and five more articles were selected from the SAES Conference which was held in Toulon in June 2015 (‘Commitment’).
