In 2024, I will attend the Fourth Global Conversations conference in Nagano, at Nagano University (May 31st - June 3rd) where I will give a paper on the relationship between nature and spirituality in the work of Ted Hughes with reference to Japanese themes. In July, I will attend the 'Dark Durrell' International Lawrence Durrell Society conference in Athens at the Kapodistrian University of Athens, where I will give a paper on 'dark spirituality' in Durrell with relation to Eastern themes.In September this year, I will give a presentation at the International Iris Murdoch Society at Chichester University on intertextuality in The Book and the Brotherhood, including reference to Japanese themes. I also intend to give a paper on Iris Murdoch at the forthcoming Iris Murdoch Society of Japan in meeting in Uji or Kyoto this November (topic and location to be confirmed). I will revise these papers for publication.I will be continuing to work on editing the volume Iris Murdoch and the East with my co-editor Rob Hardy and intend to approach Palgrave
