Join us for a Lunchtime Lecture in partnership with the University of Bristol's Centre for Environmental Humanities, featuring Laurence Publicover, Professor of Literature and Oceanic Studies.
Dr Publicover is a scholar of early modern English literature and the cultural history of the sea. His research focuses on Shakespeare and his contemporaries, as well as the ways humans have imagined, explored, and understood the ocean, particularly the deep sea and seabed.
This talk combines literary scholarship with interdisciplinary collaborations to explore the cultural and environmental significance of our oceans.
