Augustus Egg, The Travelling Companions (1862).
The Australasian Victorian Studies Association
aims to promote
the activities and research of scholars

in Victorian literary, historical, and cultural studies, including art history, architecture, politics, popular and print culture,

and, increasingly, considerations of
'The Victorian'
beyond the chronological period, and beyond the geographical centre of British Victorian Studies.

Since

1973

Since its first conference in 1973, AVSA has provided a meeting place for scholars in Victorian Studies in the southern hemisphere. AVSA’s membership is international, with a particular focus on Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore. We also have strong links with associations in Britain (BAVS) and the United States (NAVSA).
