BARS Digital Event - Re-Awakening the Harp of the North: New Approaches to Walter Scott

Thursday December 8th, 5pm to 6:30pm UK Time

This roundtable is comprised of scholars working within the Walter Scott Research Centre, University of Aberdeen. Following on from the Scott 250 celebrations and the award of a major AHRC grant to edit Scott’s poetry and engage new audiences, our proposed event aims to provide an insight into ongoing scholarship and new developments in Scott studies. This session will offer a brief insight into the work of the WSRC and the ways in which its editorial work enables new ways of thinking about Scott, the networks in which he operated, and his relationship to Romanticism.

Our speakers will be Alison Lumsden (University of Aberdeen), Nadia Faconti-Christodoulou (University of Aberdeen), Anna Fancett (University of Aberdeen), Kate Ferrier (University of Aberdeen), Natalie Tal Harries (University of Aberdeen).
