About
Keats's passion for Fanny Brawne is expressed in some of his most beautiful letters, but to what extent was their relationship constrained by the courtship conventions of their era? What did it mean for a couple to become 'engaged'? What future could they have hoped for together? And how unusual, or even risky, was their correspondence? Join social historian Amanda Vickery in conversation with literary historian John Mullan to explore one of literature's most famous love stories in the context of its times.
