CALL FOR PAPERS
Volume 5 of European Medieval Drama will be dedicated to papers on saint
plays on the stages of Medieval Europe.
European Medieval Drama, which was born with the annual European Medieval
Drama Conference held at Camerino from 1996-1999, has now become a fully
refereed journal, published by Brepols.
Offers of papers are sought from scholars at all stages of their careers
working through texts, documents and performances on all kinds of European
saint plays: virgins, martyrs and just-in-time miracle workers.
Panels presented at the recent ATHE Conference in Washington and scheduled
for the forthcoming MLA conference in at the end of the year reveal a high
level of interest in theoretical aspects of the stage representation of
martyrdom. European Medieval Drama would like to extend and move beyond
this theoretical approach to the practicalities of staging, and to
consider not only martyrs but also other forms of saintly life.
Completed papers will be required by 1 August 2001, and the volume will
appear late 2001.
Enquiries and offers of papers should be sent to me as editor at the
address below.
With warmest antipodean greetings for the holiday season, and apologies
for cross listing,
Nerida Newbigin
