Dear all,
I wanted to alert Spenserians and Sidneians on both sides of the Atlantic
(and perhaps bordering other seas?) that the fourth annual British and
Irish Spenser Seminar will take place on 9th September 2006 in the Bowett
Room, Queens' College, Cambridge. The theme of this year's meeting will be
'Life and Texts', which will also be the focus of the plenary paper from
Andrew Hadfield.
We are keen to receive contributions from students and scholars from the
UK, Ireland, and abroad, and I would be happy to hear from anyone who
might be interested in participating, or who could recommend someone else
(particularly graduate students, whom we are as ever keen to involve) who
might like to contribute a paper. We will be accepting proposals for
papers until early June; anyone interested should write to me by email or
at the address below. Advance registration for the seminar is requouraged,
and there will (as ever, alas) be an enforced contribution of five
pounds (or the equivalent).
We have had three very successful, stimulating, and above all fun meetings
over the past few years, and this September's seminar promises more of the
same. Anyone who finds themselves within striking distance of Cambridge in
September will be warmly welcome.
Any queries, comments, criticisms, or expostulations about the seminar may
be directed to me by the easiest means.
Thanks,
andrew
