The long-running Romantic Realignments Seminar has a new, streamlined identity as the ‘Romanticism Research Seminar’, not to mention an exciting and more central location at Lincoln College!

The seminar will be held at 5.30 pm in the Turl Yard lecture hall, Lincoln College, on the following Mondays:

Week 3 (27 Oct.): Prof. Lucy Newlyn interviewed by Prof. Nicholas Halmi about her recently published dual biography of Dorothy and William Wordsworth.

Week 5 (10 Nov.): novelist Ben Markovits, author of A Quiet Adjustment and other novels inspired by Lord Byron’s life (his Faber webpage describes him as having “left an unpromising career as a professional basketball player to study the Romantics”).

Week 7 (24 Nov.): Dr Erica McAlpine (Robin Geffen Career Development Fellow in English, Keble College) and Heather Stone (DPhil student in English, St Edmund Hall).

All are welcome.
