Uncovered with Words from the Wild

Season 3, Episode 1,   Feb 14, 12:45 PM

Royal Holloway doctoral researchers Caroline Harris and Briony Hughes tell us how they curated Words from the Wild: the Nature of Poetry, a new exhibition which explores many different forms of poetry, all of which respond to the natural world. They talk about their eco-poetic practice, the challenges of putting together a multi-sensory poetry exhibition, and the importance of bringing poets into the conversation on questions of biodiversity, sustainability, and climate crisis.
