*REMINDER AND DEADLINE EXTENSION*
*Cognitive Theory and Medieval Performance*
*International Medieval Congress in **Kalamazoo**, **Michigan***
*May 7-10, 2009***

Many theatre scholars are employing cognitive theory to explore drama
and performance. This research has supported long-held claims about
theatre, as well as complicated and challenged our assumptions about
theatrical events and their cultural work. The large number of recently
published essay collections, articles, and special journal issues
devoted to this interdisciplinary approach reflects its relevance and
significance.
This panel seeks papers that use evidence and theory from cognitive
science to analyze medieval drama and performance. Although papers that
analyze dramatic texts are welcome, this session specifically invites
work that employs cognitive theory to explore aspects of performance
events. The session organizer hopes to include work from a range of
medieval periods and geographic regions.
