Byron's journal, 1821: Read the papers - thought what fame was on reading, in a case of murder, that "Mr. Wych, grocer, at Tunbridge - had on his counter (I quote faithfully) a book, the 'Life of Pamela', which he was tearing for waste paper, &c. a leaf of wrapt round the bacon."
Holly Coleman, @fakeromanticst, @Roryuab2021, @JohnErik_H, and Gary Kelly probing the radical through lines of Romanticism and Leftism, from Godwin to graffiti — another excellent roundtable at @BARS_official#BARSGlasgow.
Full steam ahead: @ProfJohnGardner close-reading Romantic machines in his @BARS_official#BARSGlasgow2024 keynote, showing how literary and engineering ambitions went hand in hand in the period (as in P. B. Shelley’s steamboat project, pictured).
Following Byron’s accidental punctuations and his impetus “to giggle, and make giggle”, Jane Stabler and Matthew Ward kick off @BARS_official#BARSGlasgow2024 with the annual @byron_society Scotland lecture on the principles and pitfalls of editing Byron.
Dr Ross Wilson delivers our Keynote Lecture of the 2024 Shelley Conference, 'What is a Posthumous Poem?', considering Shelley's concern with the posthumous condition 📖✨️
Very thrilled to have been awarded an #LUP125 ECR grant, and excited for the @IABSocieties conference in Greece next month. Thank you, @LivUniPress, and congratulations on 125 years!
Marc Gotthardt (@drowsy_numbness) is the next recipient of an #LUP125 Early Career Researcher grant! Marc is a PhD student at @englishunicam exploring Lord Byron’s poetry and philosophy, and will be attending the @IABSocieties conference in July. @byron_society#LordByron
Late to the party, but we had the great pleasure of Tony Howe joining us @ArtWorkersGuild last week for a @byron_society lecture on Byron in space, situating his poetry between the silence of the cosmos and the music of the spheres.
