-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Reminder: CFP Medieval and Renaissance Performance and Periodization (MLA 2006) Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 19:27:49 -0500 From: jill stevenson <[log in to unmask]> Reply-To: PERFORM - Medieval Performing Arts <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] "Bridging the Divide: Medieval and Renaissance Performance and Periodization" 2006 MLA Convention Philadelphia, December 27-30, 2006 "Periodization" has often limited the ways in which we define, examine, and theorize performance. This panel invites papers that consider how medieval and/or renaissance performance challenges traditional notions of periodization. Periodization is defined broadly in this context. Papers might suggest how performance bridges such moments as ancient to early medieval, the High to Late Middle Ages, Medieval to Renaissance, pre- to post-Reformation, but papers that examine fresh definitions, ideas, and theories of periodization are especially encouraged. Submit one-page abstracts via email to Jill Stevenson ([log in to unmask]). Abstracts should include a brief bio and relevant contact information. All abstracts must be received by March 7th. -- Abigail Ann Young (Dr), Associate Editor/ Records of Early English Drama/ Victoria College/ 150 Charles Street W/ Toronto Ontario Canada Phone (416) 585-4504/ FAX (416) 813-4093/ [log in to unmask] List-owner of REED-L <http://www.reed.utoronto.ca/reed-l.html> http://www.reed.utoronto.ca/ => REED's home page http://www.reed.utoronto.ca/stage.html => our Web guide http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~young => my home page
