SUMMARY:Lunar Lecture - The Poetics of Romantic Ecology: Erasmus Darwin and Percy Bysshe Shelley by Dr Amanda Blake Davis
DESCRIPTION:In a well-known botanical poem\, The Sensitive-Plant\, the Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley draws upon the eroticised\, emotive plants of Erasmus Darwin’s Loves of the Plants\, where Darwin’s ‘chaste mimosa’ gives rise to Shelley’s loveless ‘sensitive-plant’. In the lesser known ‘Unfinished Drama’\, a mysterious ‘magic plant’ grows\, snake-like\, muddling the categories of plant and animal. Centring on these two poems\, this talk will explore Shelley’s ecological poetics through his interrelationship with Darwin. \n  \nTickets available here \n
