                         Society for Reformation Studies
                                CALL FOR PAPERS

                             5th Annual Conference
                               15-17 April 1998
                       at Westminster College, Cambridge, UK


          The fifth annual Conference of the Society for Reformation Studies
will be held at Westminster College, Cambridge, UK on 15-17 April 1998. The
special theme for the forthcoming Conference is 'The Reformation in England,
Scotland, Ireland and Wales in Continental perspective'. The two keynote
speakers for 1998 will be Dr Eamon Duffy (Magdalene College, Cambridge) and
Dr Sachiko Kusukawa (Trinity College, Cambridge). There will also be a
visit to
the Wren Library, Trinity College Cambridge, to see an exhibition of
Reformation treasures. Additionally, it is hoped that the choir of Gonville
and Caius College Cambridge will give a performance of sacred music during
the
Conference on our theme for this year.

          As well as its special theme each year, the Society encourages all
attenders to offer papers in their chosen area of interest. Research
students are
particularly invited to share the results of their work with members. The
Society
is keen to promote Reformation and Renaissance scholarship in all its aspects
- theology, spirituality and related disciplines.

          The Society is also intending to sponsor a journal called
'Reformation
and Renaissance Review', to be published in 1998 by Sheffield Academic
Press. The
Society is planning to mount a website to advertise its work and to act as a
focus for all Society members working in the field of Reformation and
Renaissance Studies. Details will be made available as soon as the site has
been launched.

          The cost of full board at Westminster College for Society members
will
be 30 POUNDS STERLING per person per day. Non-members will pay an
additional fee of
30 POUNDS STERLING on top of all Conference costs. Personal membership of the
Society is 5 pounds sterling per annum.

          If you are interested in giving a paper at the forthcoming 1998
Conference, would like to join the Society or find out more about its work,
