North East Forum in Eighteenth-Century and Romantic Studies
ActiveDescription
The North East Forum in Eighteenth-Century and Romantic Studies was founded in 2004. It is run in collaboration between Durham University, Newcastle University and Northumbria University. The Forum hosts a number of seminars each year in the North East region, and aims to foster discussion and research into all aspects of literature and culture of the long eighteenth century and Romantic period.
Its seminars take place on Friday afternoons, rotating between the three universities, usually with two papers each, and all are welcome; the year also includes a memorial forum and, in earlier years, a festive reading. It marked its tenth anniversary in 2014 with an interdisciplinary conference at the Lit & Phil in Newcastle, The North in the Long-Eighteenth Century.
