The British Association for Romantic Studies (BARS) is looking for contributors to write for our blog: an online collection of news\/notices and longer posts, all of which celebrate and promote research in Romanticism. Would you like to contribute to a) The \u2018Archive Spotlight\u2019 series or b) The \u2018On This Day\u2019 series?<\/p>\n
Please get in touch by sending a short pitch of what your post will include, and a short bio. Final posts should be around 1000 words.<\/p>\n
Further details: Posts should be a blog about your experience of using an\u00a0archive. You could use the space to discuss one or two things of interest you found at the archive, perhaps things that are intriguing, but that you cannot fit into your thesis, book, or other written work.<\/p>\n The post could also be an account of the\u00a0archive\u00a0itself as well as some things you’ve studied there that relate to the Romantic Period (1770-1830). You could focus more on the latter if you prefer. Previous examples can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2018On This Day\u2019:<\/u> The best way to get a feel of this series is to read our excellent posts from past contributors. You can see all the posts here<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you have any questions or would like to make an informal enquiry about writing for us, please get in touch with Anna Mercer<\/a> (BARS Blog Editor)<\/strong>: mercerannam@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The British Association for Romantic Studies (BARS) is looking for contributors to write for our blog: an online collection of news\/notices and longer posts, all of which celebrate and promote… Read more »<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1979"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1979"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1979\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1981,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1979\/revisions\/1981"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1979"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1979"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1979"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
\n<\/em>\u2018Archive<\/u>\u00a0Spotlight\u2019:<\/u><\/p>\n
\nThis is a Romantic bicentenary series that has been running since July 2015. We have been inspired to create this series following the popularity on Twitter of the \u2018OnThisDay\u2019 hashtag. We want to present a catalogue of #OnThisDay blog posts that relate to events happening exactly 200 years ago. The premise of the blog is to give readers a snapshot of 1818 in 2018 (and on into 2019 and beyond!), relevant to that month or even that particular day. The series is also a part of #Romantics200<\/a>.<\/p>\n
