White Guest of Honour: Stuart Curran The Keats Foundation is delighted to announce that its second John Keats Bicentenary Conference will be held at Guy\u2019s Hospital, Southwark, London, from Friday 1 May to Sunday 3 May 2015, marking two hundred years since Keats enrolled as a student at the Hospital. The Conference is organised by the Keats Foundation (U. K. Registered Charity 1147589), and follows a successful first bicentenary conference at Keats House, Hampstead. The 2015 Conference themes embrace all aspects of Keats\u2019s medical-poetic career: his writings during the Guy\u2019s Hospital years; the poet-physician and physician-poet; war, disease, medicine and Keats\u2019s poetry; his hospital training and the medical context; Keats\u2019s social circles at Guy\u2019s, fellow poets, biography, and critical reception. The Conference will include lectures, papers, a visit to the Old Operating Theatre at Guy\u2019s Hospital, a tour of Keats\u2019s Southwark, and a reception at the George Inn on the Borough Road \u2013 London\u2019s last surviving coaching inn, and surely known to Keats while at Guy\u2019s.<\/p>\n \u2018John Keats: Poet-Physician\u2019 will keep the registration fee as low as is practically possible. We leave accommodation choices and costs to participants, in the belief that this will be welcome for offering maximum flexibility for all attending. Travel arrangements are likewise a matter for those coming to London. The Call for Papers will be published soon, in early Autumn 2014, to allow delegates as much time as possible for arrangements to be made.<\/p>\n For all enquiries: Please see below for a preliminary notice for the second Keats Foundation bicentennial conference, which will take place at Guy’s Hospital next May. — — — — — John Keats:… Read more »<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408"}],"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\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=408"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":411,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408\/revisions\/411"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=408"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=408"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=408"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Keats](\"http:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Keats-Lecture-Card.jpg\")
