Professor Terry Eagleton: Lectures and Postgraduate Seminars and Tutorials

Terry Eagleton is spending the bulk of his time at Lancaster teaching postgraduates within the Department. All postgraduates in the Department are invited to attend the six seminars he gives each year and which are exclusive to students from the Department.
