Huge thanks to the panel for this award. I can't wait to start!

The night tinkles like ice in glasses.
Leaves are glued to the pavement with frost.
The brown air fumes at the shop windows,
Tries the doors, and sidles past…

Winning a Visiting Fellowship with UoG's ASC was one of the best things to happen to me this year.

It progressed my new Scottish Romanticism project beyond what I could've done alone; & opened up new avenues of research. I'm now presenting & publishing my new finds

And everyone I met was lovely 💜

If any of you want to analyse the new Frankenstein film, let us know!!! It would work great in the Romanticism Now/Romantic Reimaginings blog series or on the TikTok 👀

(And of course any other ideas you have! But I've just finished watching Frankenstein lol)
We would love YOU to write for the BARS Blog! If you have an idea for the blog or for our TikTok/Instagram channel, then please do get in touch! www.bars.ac.uk/blog/

Mary Shelley's time living near Dundee on the "blank and dreary northern shores of the Tay" fired her imagination 💭

It was here her "true compositions, the airy flights of my imagination, were born." Discover how Scotland shaped her novel, Frankenstein, in our article by Professor Daniel Cook.

We have lots of student notebooks containing sketches on anatomy, diseases etc, however, this one is by far our favourite. It shows Joseph Lister, father of antiseptic surgery, disappearing through a trapdoor after his lecture in Glasgow in 1868. Now that's how to make an exit!

AnaÏs Nin ran a treadle-press in the 40s and there's this wonderful quotation of hers I printed recently.

absolutely wild that Hangsaman was first published in 1951 & yet I recognise every academic "type" in it. Truly Shirley Jackson is a genius

Happy Halloween!🎃

In his poem “All Souls’ Night”, W.B. Yeats calls on the memory of his lost friends around a ghostly dinner table. The poem serves as an epilogue to his work ‘A Vision’, an philosophical exploration of the imaginary and the occult.🔮 👻

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵
