1. Make that _two_ people who would like cross-posts from PERFORM.
3. I would like to hear about the Centre for Medieval Studies
Conference on performance.
4. I won't post a bio. here except to say that I am a doctoral
candidate in English literature at the University of Alberta
specializing in Middle English literature and that I am an
editorial assistant on a new edition of the works of Francis
Bacon being done for OUP. Which actually occasion a request
from me to the REED list members. The editor has shown enough
confidence in me to give me the task of preparing the text of
Bacon's masque "Tribute" (a.k.a. "The Pastime of Pleasure").
The text itself is no problem since there are only two complete
MSS and one fragment and one of the complete versions is severely
damaged. I'm okay with the codicological description as well
as the dates, provenance, occasion, etc. But I am a little
out of my field when it comes to Elizabethan theatre history.
I would be extrememly grateful if someone could recommend
some of the important recent studies of Elizabethan court masque
to get me started. Some things, perhaps, with good bibliographies.
