Prof Clare Pettitt, King’s College, London,
‘News, Ballads, Broadsides and Shows: Scott Unbound’
Clare Pettitt’s paper focuses on the much quoted, highly mobile literary works of Walter Scott to ask how Scott's entanglement with newspaper, periodical and spectacular show culture created new forms of historical knowledge and modelled new media possibilities.
