We are seeking a third panelist for a session on “Elizabeth’s Aging Body” to be
proposed for *Elizabeth R.*, the conference commemorating the 400th anniversary
of the death of Queen Elizabeth I to be held 21-23 March 2003 at Southern
Illinois University Edwardsville.

We welcome papers that address representations of Elizabeth’s body during the
last decade of her reign, and/or in the immediate aftermath of her death. Topics
might include the "mask of youth" or other constructions of Elizabeth's body in
the propaganda of her later reign, visual or verbal descriptions of the queen's
body as subject or not subject to time, discussions of specific funeral or
posthumous depictions, and/or the cultural effects of the queen's aging on
conceptions of the political or natural body.

Please send abstracts (250-300 words) by 26 July to:
Cora Fox <cora.fox@asu.edu>, and Richelle Munkhoff <rmunkhof@tulane.edu>
