We are pleased to announce that registration for the *Editing Contexts* conference is now open. The links and programme can be found below. Editing Contexts is a one-day interdisciplinary conference on historical editions of literary texts, kindly supported by The Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities (TORCH). It examines how historical contexts - political, intellectual, and religious - shaped the aims and methods of editors from Antiquity to the present. We hope to bring together graduate students and early career scholars researching editions in all periods of European literature. The conference will be held on *Friday 22nd June* from 9:30 to 15:45. The venue will be the TORCH Seminar Room at Radcliffe Humanities, Woodstock Road, Oxford, OX2 6GG. The full schedule can be found below.
