Renaissance Technologies
A one-day interdisciplinary conference at the University of Huddersfield
in
association
with the Northern Renaissance Seminar


Saturday, March 16, 2002, 10am-5.30pm


Confirmed speakers: Stephen Clucas, Ceri Sullivan, Jonathan Sawday,
Scott
Wilson

This conference will focus on the theme of Renaissance Technologies.
Issues of
technological innovation and revolution will be approached from a
variety of
disciplinary
standpoints and theoretical positions. Fruitful avenues for
investigation
might be: information
and print technology; material consumption; the commodification of
technology;
interaction
between human and machine; representations of the meta-human; the
economic
influence
and repercussions of technology; the nature of the body; banking and
financial
transactions;
imperial and republic technologies; measurement and dominion;
definitions of
spatial relations;
labour and agriculture; medical technology and anatomical prints;
emblematic
representation.
Specific discussions could range from a discussion of the iron-man Talus
in
The Faerie
Queene to the impact of new arms technology on early modern warfare or
the
effect of
new time-keeping instruments on Restoration society. Theoretical
considerations might
deploy the work of Michel Foucault, Friedrich Kittler, Paul Virilio or
Jean
Baudrillard. Papers
from Postgraduate students are welcomed.

Please send abstracts of 400 words (post or email) by November 15th 2001
to
Jerome
de Groot, English Department, University of Huddersfield, St. Peter's
Building,
St. Peter's Street, Huddersfield, HD1 1RA, United Kingdom,
