The Centre for Fantasy and the Fantastic, the University of Glasgow, and Cardiff University are happy to invite you all to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of Richard Adams's Watership Down in a two-day conference taking place on the University of Glasgow, 2-3 September 2022.
Join us for two days of fascinating papers exploring all aspects of Watership Down, its influences and legacy, and three amazing keynotes: Adams’ daughter Rosamond Mahony, British children’s writer SF Said, and Dr Briony Wickes (University College Dublin), a specialist in literary animal studies.
