The Department of English Literature would like to extend warm thanks to ‘The Friends of the University’ for a donation of £500 for an ‘Images of Literature’ project. Maddi Davies applied for the money so that the Department could buy some framed posters from the RSC, The Globe, and The National Portrait Gallery to help produce a coherent literary identity for the Department corridors.
The new pictures will be selected and ordered over the summer; if anyone has any ideas for powerful images, please let Maddi and Cindy know.
