Lecture: A GMH Parlor Presentation – 
Entitled: Multiple Meanings: Gothic Church Interiors in Britain and the US in the 19th and 20th Centuries 
with Professor Carol Herringer, PhD., Georgia Southern University
When: Thursday, September 10 at 6 p.m.&nbsp;a reception and chance to meet the speaker will follow.

Where: Green-Meldrim House, 327 Bull Street, Savannah, GA - Madison Square
Admission: Free of charge! Seating reservation required
Contact: 912-233-3845; <a href="mailto:info@greenmeldrimhouse.org">info@greenmeldrimhouse.org</a>
Description:&nbsp; Unlock the symbolism of historic church interiors with Dr. Herringer at the GMH. Her upcoming talk details the Victorian Gothic revival in British Anglo-Catholic churches. Learn how new features—from raised altars to rood screens—were driven by changes in Eucharistic doctrine. The presentation will also feature local insights into the interior of St. John’s Church.
From the GMH Director: "We cannot understand nineteenth-century architecture without studying churches. Our goal is to bridge that gap."
About the speaker: Carol Engelhardt Herringer is Professor of History at Georgia Southern University, where she teaches World History, British history, and a course on vampires in history and culture. She has served as chair of the History department at Georgia Southern University (2019-2024) and before that as chair of the Department of History at Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio (2010-2016). She is the author of Victorians and the Virgin Mary: Religion and Gender in England 1830-85 (Manchester UP, 2008) and a number of articles and essays on Victorian religion and culture, as well as the co-editor of Edward Bouverie Pusey and the Oxford Movement
(Anthem, 2012). She is currently working on a book project on the cultural significance of debates over the Eucharist in the Victorian Church of England.
