Frankenstein with Anil Seth and Fiona Sampson
Description
Mary Shelley in Bath. Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin finished writing Frankenstein while lodging in Bath and attending lectures on electricity and galvanism. We visit the Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution and the recently opened Mary Shelley’s House of Frankenstein with the neuroscientist Anil Seth (author of Being You) and the poet and biographer Fiona Sampson (In Search of Mary Shelley), discussing Romantic literature, early nineteenth-century science and the mystery of consciousness.
