Pearls and their value in the Victorian Era, which led me down a mini-rabbit hole of some really fascinating articles about Victorian jewelry and its significance!
The Romantic Period (1837-1860)
The Grand Period (1861-1885)
Late Victorian Aesthetic Period (1885-1901)

Calamari (aka squid as an ingredient for food) wasn't referenced in English writing until 1826 and it was called calamara. Calamari and six other spellings wouldn't appear until the mid-1900s. (thanks, OED!)

Me yesterday skimming through title lines for Romantic poems looking for one about the horrors of fading into anonymity —
but one that Ford would like, so not Ozymandias —
had a hunch Keats might have one and he did! Thank you literature degree!
