Really enjoying all the #bslsws2020 papers and looking forward to the live events this afternoon! Between @TheBSLS symposium and the @Euromanticism Romantic Science collection, I'm spoiled for Literature and Science content this week!

Lots of exciting articles on Romantic Science! Planets! Chemistry! Erasmus Darwin! Keats's lecture notes! (and some rambles by me on mechanical birds and comedy body-snatchers...)

I've just seen an ad for this literal Mask of Anarchy, if anyone's teaching Percy Shelley f2f this term...

It's been wonderful hearing everyone's papers this afternoon at the @Euromanticism #RomanticMedia workshop from the conference tech hub (i.e. my desk) Now for virtual (or perhaps not so virtual) cocktails.

Had a lovely time listening to/reading everyone's papers plus the fantastic keynotes and workshops at @BARS_PGs #RomanticFuturities! SO impressed with how organisers @ABDavis1816 @ColetteMDavies and @P_R_Stephens adapted the conference to a digital format. It worked beautifully!

The shackles on Thelwall's mouth here were metaphorical. For the millions of black Africans who were victims of slavery this was not the case. So here are some online museums/exhibitions which tell those stories and celebrate Black lives: THREAD (1/4)
In today's post, Alice Rhodes @aearhodes takes a look at a 1796 political token depicting John Thelwall. View the exhibit here: buff.ly/3cVFtX1
