Cornelia Pearsall earned B.A., M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in English from Yale University. She teaches a range of courses on Victorian and modern literature and culture.
Professor Pearsall's book Tennyson's Rapture is forthcoming from Oxford University Press, and she is completing another book on the centrality of the poet laureate to late Victorian imperial expansion, titled "Imperial Tennyson." Two other projects are in progress: a book on Victorian mourning, titled Loved Remains, and a collection of essays on war poetry from the mid-19th to the mid-20th centuries.
Professor Pearsall's articles on Robert Browning, Virginia Woolf, W.H. Auden and others have appeared in various journals, including Raritan, Victorian Literature and Culture and Victorian Poetry.
