On Thursday 17 March the Renaissance Graduate Seminar will be hosting a
one-day symposium to showcase the research of the faculty's final-year
Renaissance PhD students. Professor Brian Cummings (University of Sussex)
will act as invited external respondent.
Papers will range across such subjects as history of the book, religion,
classical influence, music, film adaptation, and the recreation of the
past. Speakers are Joanna Bellis, Sheldon Brammall, Simon Jackson, Alison
Knight, Lucy Razzall, Dunstan Roberts, Simon Ryle and Harriet Phillips.
The day event will run from 9.30am to 4.30pm, in GR06 in the English
faculty, and will be followed by concluding remarks over wine in the
faculty's social space. Lunch, tea and coffee will be provided. Attendees
are also welcome to join us for an inexpensive dinner with the respondent
at 6pm. A more detailed schedule will be circulated nearer the day.
All are welcome, and the day will be free, but registration is essential.
If you would like to attend, please send your name to Sheldon Brammall
(sb658@cam.ac.uk) by 14 March, also indicating whether you will join us for
dinner.
