18th Annual Postgraduate Medieval Studies Conference
23rd-25th February, 2012
Centre for Medieval Studies, University of Bristol, UK
Identity and Image
The University of Bristol hosts the longest-running international
medieval postgraduate conference in the UK. This annual event offers
medievalists the opportunity to present their research and discuss ideas
in an interdisciplinary setting. The conference is now in its 18th year,
and proposals are invited for papers from postgraduates and early career
scholars on the theme of Identity and Image.
The aim of this year's conference is to explore how identity was
formed, expressed and understood in the Middle Ages. We are interested in
the way individuals and groups constructed images of themselves and
others, and how identity was affected by religious, racial, political and
other social factors on an international, national or local scale. The
theme 'Identity and Image' invites consideration of how, and
if, we can interpret medieval notions of identity from the textual,
visual, musical and material sources that have survived to the present
day. We welcome a wide range of discussion from issues of religious and
artistic patronage, devotional practice, language choice and material
culture to considerations of how the self or the other is presented in
literary and visual culture.
Please send any questions to Hannah Walters ([log in to unmask])
All the best,
Hannah Walters
