Cedric Van Dijck

I am an assistant professor of English Literature at Vrije Universiteit Brussel. I am the author of Modernism, Material Culture and the First World War (2023), and a co-editor of The Edinburgh Companion to First World War Periodicals (2023) and The Intellectual Response to the First World War (2017). I am also the principal investigator on the ERC-funded AFROPRESS project, which examines the global ambitions of Sub-Saharan Africa's literary, cultural and political magazines in the period 1918-68. In 2024 I was elected to the Flemish Young Academy and I currently also serve as editor-in-chief of the Journal of European Periodical Studies.
