| Submission declined on 23 December 2023 by Mach61 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Gregory Dart is a professor of English at University College London (UCL). His research interests include Romanticism and the history and development of the essay. He is currently editing an anthology on the works of Charles and Mary Lamb, as well as editing a collection of essays on the city, which follows his earlier collection called Restless Cities[1], which he worked on with colleague Matthew Beaumont.[2]
Dart is a chairman of the Hazlitt Society, a project initiated by UCL to "promote and encourage the appreciation of Hazlitt's life and work".[3] As well as contributing to literary publications, Dart has contributed 16 essays for use by the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden.[2] His book, Unrequited Love, has also been adapted as a documentary by the same name and was directed by Chris Petit. Dart has also appeared on the mockumentary television series Cunk on Britain as a romanticism specialist.[4]
Dart gained both his BA and PhD from Clare College, Cambridge. Dart taught English Literature at the University of York for seven years from 1993. From 2000, he moved to UCL to teach the same subject.[5]
