    Call for Papers

    The Centre for Medieval Studies and the Graduate Centre for the Study of
    Drama at the University of Toronto are jointly sponsoring a conference:

     'Crossing the borders: theories of performance in the Middle Ages and
    the Renaissance'

    March 23 and 24

    People in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance expressed their ideas
    about art in a variety of ways - treatises, sermons, polemics and in the
    works of art themselves. Papers are invited on topics related to ways in
    which artistic production was theorized in the Middle Ages and
    Renaissance.

    Papers dealing with more than one form of artistic expression (eg drama
    and music, art and poetry, drama and art, poetry and music) are
    particularly welcome. The Conference will include performances of
    Hrothsvita's Thais and Tasso's Aminta

    Papers should be 20 minutes in length. Please send a short abstract or
    description of your paper to Alexandra Johnston, Victoria College,
    University of Toronto, 73 Queen's Park Cresc, Toronto M5S 1K7
    (ajohnsto@chass.utoronto.ca) before 20 December, 2000.
