ESSAY RULES

Essays must be no shorter than 750 words and no longer than 1000, including quotations.

Essays must be original works. Plagiarism will not be accepted - including AI-generated work. They must not have been published previously, either in print or online or in any other media, nor previously submitted to us. All sources must be acknowledged.

Essay judge Professor Sharon Ruston writes: ‘I want to read a well-organised, lively, and well-expressed essay. It should be arguing a point and offer persuasive evidence in its case. We are also looking for someone who has a creative interest in Keats, Shelley, and their circle.’
