Tuesdays of Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 8 of Micahelmas Term
5.30-7.30pm The Bajpai Room, Balliol College
A new arena for postgraduates to try out ideas, prepare for conferences and discuss their work in progress. Papers on all topics bearing on the field are welcome and should be around 20minutes; please contact either James Baxendine (james.baxendine@magd.ox.ac.uk) or Anna Camilleri (anna.camilleri@balliol.ox.ac.uk) with a title and short summary of your topic.
Past speakers have included Marilyn Butler, Gerard Carruthers, David Chandler, Heather Glen, Paul Muldoon, Philip Shaw, Fiona Stafford and Peter Swaab, to name but a few.
All are very welcome to submit an abstract — we aim to provide a friendly 'workshop' setting in which speakers can try out new papers as well as more finished pieces, and in which lively discussion can flourish.
Held on Thursdays at 5.15pm, Seminar Room A, St Cross (English Faculty) Building.
If you would like to send us an abstract or suggest a speaker, please contact the current convenors Katherine Fender, Sarah Goode and Honor Rieley at: romantic.realignments@gmail.com
