Word and Image

ERF Study Afternoon
Thursday, 26th March 2009
2 - 4 pm, Large Boardroom, Founders Building (Egham Campus)

This event will provide an opportunity for postgraduate students at Royal Holloway to discuss ongoing research ideas and to socialise with other members of the department, as well as contributing to research training. We will be concentrating on the relationship between Word and Image in literary studies, and invite staff and postgraduate students from all areas of the discipline to attend.

The programme for the afternoon will run as follows:

Dr Vicky Greenaway will be delivering her paper 'The Materiality of the Aesthetic in the poetry of D. G. Rossetti and A. C. Swinburne' which will explore the correlation of Pre-Raphaelite poetic techniques with formal techniques and innovations in contemporary painting.

Katarina Jonsson will speak on 'The Visual Appearance of Guinevere in Morris and Tennyson's Poetry and Illustrations'.

Come along for the discussion, and stay for the wine and nibbles!

We hope to see you there.

Best Wishes
