Museum of Archaeology
Join Associate Professor Emily Rohrbach of Durham University as she explores Romantic poet John Keats's creative encounter with his predecessor Shakespeare, focusing on the young poet’s engagement with Shakespeare through his facsimile copy of the 1623 folio. In that book, Keats inscribed an original poem in the space left by the printer between the end of Hamlet and the beginning of King Lear.
