In this meeting, we will read Edmund Spenser's marvellous, short 1590 poem Muiopotmos. A copy of this will be circulated in advance of the meetings to attendees who register their interest by contacting either Fraser McIlwraith (fraser.mcilwraith.15@ucl.ac.uk) or Kate Kinley (catherine.kinley.19@ucl.ac.uk); a copy is also available to download below.


Registration is essential due to restrictions on numbers in FC 239, so please make sure to get in touch if you want to attend. All are welcome to join – the Reading Group has always been an informal occasion. We look forward to seeing as many people there as possible!
