Василевский Орельен Василевский

I am an Associate Professor of English studies based in Paris, France (Paris-Panthéon-Assas University). My research interests lie in the print and visual culture of Victorian and Edwardian gardening, with particular attention to the ways British gardens and gardening practices were mediated, represented, and theorised from the nineteenth to the early twentieth century. Since completing a PhD in 2022 on gardener, garden writer, journalist and magazine editor William Robinson (1838‒1935), my research has examined the history of British gardens and gardening practices in the media, the socio-economic foundations of garden aesthetics and representations, and the human-nature relationship and environmental ethics they articulate.
