We ask why Coleridge \u2013 poet, \u2018scrapster\u2019, and would-be encyclopaedist \u2013 turned to Virgil\u2019s Sibyl and her scattered leaves, \u2018borne aloft in liquid air\u2019, to frame his 1817 collection of poetry\u00a0<em>Sibylline Leaves<\/em>; what is at stake in reading the fragments and detached pieces which escape beyond the bound volume; how do the metaphors and materialities of these \u2018leaves in flight\u2019 interact; what mediates the \u2018phantasmal chaos of association\u2019; how does compilation inform the practices, ideals, anxieties and temporalities of romantic authorship, and the cut-and-paste fervours of its readership? Please join us to discuss all this and more over two days, in the summery environs of Bloomsbury.&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The full programme\u00a0and registration details for &#8216;Sibylline Leaves:\u00a0Chaos and Compilation in the Romantic Period&#8217; (Birkbeck, London: 20 &amp; 21 July 2017)\u00a0are now available.
