Monday 6 March, UoB Arts Building 103 (Constance Naden Room) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

with guest speaker Paddy Bullard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arts of Place is delighted to welcome Paddy Bullard<\/a> to Birmingham for discussion and reflections on the links between land and labour in literary history. In the 50th anniversary year of Raymond Williams’s The Country and the City<\/em>, Paddy will reflect on why paying serious attention to rural life should still be central to understanding culture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paddy is the editor of A History of English Georgic Writing<\/em>, a major book about a ‘vital green force in literary history’, available now and online here<\/a> (with library log-on). He has written widely on seventeenth- and eighteenth-century literary culture, book history, and politics as well as working closely with the Museum of English Rural Life and developing pioneering projects on craft and manual skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’ll be responses from UoB staff and students and open conversation over a glass of wine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
