2001 Carolinas Symposium on British Studies, Univerisity of South
Carolina
This panel will explore the moral philosophy underpinning the dramatic
experiments of Shakespeare and his contemporaries. Interdisiciplinary
and theoretical papers are especially welcome. Suggested topics include
but are not limited to the following: consideration of the ways in which
ethics influence dramatic genres (i.e., how the ethics of comedy differ
from the ethics of tragedy, or how the difficulties of mixed-genre drama
might result from conflicting ethical principles); explorations of
influential Elizabethan-Jacobean religious beliefs or philosophies
(e.g., neostoicism or skepticism); comparisons of the ethical principles
of native English dramatic forms with those of classical forms; the
ethics manifested by representations of gender and race in the drama of
the period.
The twenty-seventh annual CSBS meeting will be held at the University of
S.C. in Aiken, on Feb. 3-4, 2001. The best paper will receive a prize of
$250 and submission to the <Albion>.
Reading time will be limited to fifteen minutes.
