I am so excited about this! Come join us! I look forward to speaking about the Demeter scene in Bram Stoker’s Dracula: of how it’s a reworking and how it’s been reworked 🧛‍♀️

A heartfelt thanks to everyone who came to my inaugural lecture in April. A recording of my talk, 'Ex Nihilo: Romanticism, Creation, and the Invention of "Literature"' is now available from the University of Edinburgh website:

I’m teaching Coleridge this week, so I’m taking that as a full pass at indulging my Ancient Mariner obsession. So here’s a thread of some of my favourite things and thoughts about the Rime, both academic and more personal/subjective, starting with the gorgeous Doré illustrations.

A late-night Frankenstein talk at @KeatsHouse by @ABDavis1816 this coming Thursday October 5th sounds like a lovely way to start off the Halloween season. This certainly feels like one for @OGOMProject’s #31DaysOfHalloween #Gothtober https://t.co/U3hg3yKgCr

#OTD 1803 to Southey: ‘What a wonderful city Edinburgh is! What alternation of height and depth! A city looked at in the polish’d back of a Brobdingnag spoon held lengthways, so enormously stretched-up are the houses!’

#OTD 1818 Byron and Shelley ride in Venice

"We passed the laguna in the middle of the night in a most violent storm of wild rain & lightning. It was very curious to observe the elements above in a state of such tremendous convulsion & the surface of the water almost calm"

[Letters of P. B. Shelley @ShelleyLetters]

‘The country was various & exceedingly beautiful. [...] [We] past between high mountains crowned with some of the most majestic Gothic ruins I ever saw, which frowned from the bare precipice, or were half seen among the olive copses.’

Percy to Mary Shelley, 18 August 1818

[Osman Samiuddin @OsmanSamiuddin]

I remember reading this when it first came out years ago and loving the idea of this piece (and being fascinated by the idea of the film itself). And to then read it written and reported as beautifully as this was the icing. Must read.

Percy Bysshe Shelley turns 231 #OTD 🥳 At 10 he composed “A Cat in Distress”—this earliest extant copy, written in the hand of his sister Elizabeth, is held in the Carl H. Pforzheimer collection at the NYPL. See more MSS from the Shelley circle👉 https://t.co/YyMn0lRFA2

On July 30th, Emily Brontë's and Kate Bush's shared birthday, it seems appropriate to post a Wuthering Heights related pic.

The Colour Lab 🎨

@KaffeFassettStu considers his house a colour laboratory where he can play with colour across media.

Designs are hand-painted in gouache. Works are then digitised, colour-matched, and translated into fabric.
