Subject: Call for Papers
 
I just received a note from Lynette Muir in Leeds, England, who asked me
to place a call for papers on PERFORM.  On June 16-21, 1996, in Tel
Aviv, Israel, there will be an international conference on "Theatre and
Holy Scriptures: Ritual and Mythological Dimensions of the Theatre".
The conference will deal with theatre from all historical periods, but
clearly medieval theatre is a "natural" for the announced topic.  Papers
of about 20 minutes in length are solicited on numerous sub-topics,
among which are: Sacrificial patterns in the theatre; Liturgical rites
and theatre; The divine on stage; The scriptures as theatrical text and
pre-text; and Religious theatre and the audience.
 
Abstracts may be submitted either to the general conference or to one
of the already established sessions.  To submit abstracts or to request
further information about the conference, please write to:
