By John Stokes at the British Library Conference Centre.

Taking Lady Eccles' magnificent donation of material relating to Oscar Wilde and his circle to the British Library as its example, the talk will explore the ways in which the creativity of the collector can, in turn, inspire the imagination of the scholar.

Attendance is free, but please register your name with Teresa Harrington at the British Library: e-mail: teresa.harrington@bl.uk.
