Christine Robson: 'Genre and Mixed Media Fluidity of Arthurianism'
This paper will examine the Arthurian works of C. S. Lewis and T. H. White in the context of the legacy of Pre-Raphaelite Arthurianism, tracing the legends’ shifts between genres and media.

Eugenia Biavati: "Once and Future Parody"
This paper is concerned with parodic retellings of the Arthurian legend in works of fantasy (such as Terry Pratchett's short stories) and specifically how fantasy and parody both interact with the once-and-future-ness of King Arthur.

All welcome-

this seminar is free to attend, but booking in advance is required.
