All those associated with OGOM are cordially invited to join us online at the university for the first of our Literature Research Seminars. We are kicking off with an eco-gothic theme to appeal to one or two of our newly recruited PhD research students. We are also reaching out to colleagues in Creative Arts and the UH Centre for Climate Change Research, to foster some cross fertilisation of ideas. We are going to be pairing papers as we go through (to point to possible collaborations and shared ideas) and we will also be bringing in our Literature PhD students where possible.
These seminars will be held on Zoom in the first instance to be accessible for all (including external invitees and students). There will be 40 mins for the presentation and 20 mins for questions. Please find below the dates for your diary. Thanks to Kaja and Justin for starting us off.
Times and links below. Hope to see you there. All welcome.
