Noah Heringman

Noah Heringman teaches courses on British Romanticism, literature and science, poetic genres, and critical theory. He has completed three scholarly monographs: Romantic Rocks, Aesthetic Geology (Cornell University Press, 2004); Sciences of Antiquity: Romantic Antiquarianism, Natural History, and Knowledge Work (Oxford University Press, 2013); and Deep Time: A Literary History (Princeton University Press, 2023). These projects were supported by, among others, year-long fellowships from the Huntington Library (2000-2001) and the National Humanities Center (2014-2015). Heringman has also edited or co-edited several collections of essays and journal volumes, including Romantic Science: The Literary Forms of Natural History (2003); Romantic Writing and Ecological Knowledge (2023);  Romantic Theories of Life: Between Living and Nonliving (2019), co-edited with Richard C. Sha; and Romantic Antiquarianism (2014) and Ancient Objects and New Media (2022), both co-edited with Crystal B. Lake. He has published articles in Representations, Studies in Romanticism, SEL: Studies in English Literature 1500-1900, and other journals, as well as numerous book chapters. In 2017, Heringman and Lake received a three-year Scholarly Editions grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities for Vetusta Monumenta, which they co-edit with Katharina Boehm. The first volume was completed in 2019 and the project received an additional one-year NEH grant in 2021, enabling the completion of volumes 2 (2022) and 3 (2025). In 2025, Heringman became an elected Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London (FSA) and in 2026 he received an NEH Fellowship to work on his new book project, an English edition of the letters of Johann Joachim Winckelmann.
