“Sequestered Places, Having Seas: The Life & Works of M.R. James”: briefly (En)

Instead of conclusions, briefly, as I am super-tired (returned to Cambridge recently): the Symposium was fantastic. It’s always great, of course, to compare your own research to those of your colleagues, and it felt very humbling and genuinely incredible to listen to so many brilliant academics presenting their talks at the panels. My utmost gratitude goes to the organisers, and, especially, to Dr. Lindsey Scott: thanks to her, everything worked impeccably today.
I fell in love with the University of Suffolk and their archives, where the conference took place: I am already eager to come back! Chapeau, Ipswich, and raise your glass in honour to the old Prof and Master of ghost stories!
