These are a few publications that came up during the steering group‘s initial discussions in York.  This list is extremely provisional and incomplete, focusing principally on the decade itself, rather than seeking to cover particular works or authors.  However, it might serve as a starting point for those wishing to explore some of the existing work touching on the 1820s.  Additions are very welcome (please send by email to the organisers).
