We received a number of very high quality applications for the BARS Communications Fellow 2025-26 position. The Executive Committee are delighted to announce that there will be a new Fellow working on the BARS Blog and social media in the next academic year:
Chloe Wilcox

Chloe is a third-year undergraduate in English Language and Literature at St Hugh’s College, University of Oxford. Her dissertation research explores the poetry and poetics of Thomas Bakewell. She is also working on self-injury in Romantic-period literature.
Chloe will be assisting Comms Officer, Amy Wilcockson, with the social media (Facebook, BlueSky, TikTok), plus facilitating the creation of original content for the BARS Blog and TikTok accounts.
More on our plans for this academic year very soon! Keep an eye on our social media pages for how you can be involved and contribute to the BARS Blog.
With huge thanks to Dr Adam Neikirk, our outstanding Communications Fellow for 2024-5. Adam will be continuing his wonderful work on Romantic Poets in the Wild with BARS!
