CONFERENCE CALL FOR PAPERS

(Re)reading Shakespeare: Text and Performance

" Soule of the age,
The applause, delight, the wonder of our Stage...
Triumph, my Britain, thou hast one to shewe
To whom all scenes of Europe homage owe.
He was not of an age, but for all time ..."

Ben Jonson's prophecy foretelling the eternal nature of Shakespeare's drama
seems to have been completely fulfilled as we still read the great bard's
works and watch them on the stage with renewed enthusiasm. This conference
seeks to offer fresh perspectives and critical renderings of Shakespeare's
works on the domains of both text and performance.
Topics include but are not limited to:
*Contemporary Shakespeare criticism
*Shakespeare, Race and Colonialism
*Shakespeare and Feminism
*Adaptations of Shakespeare
*Shakespeare and Film
*Shakespeare and Culture(s)
*Shakespeare and Language
*Shakespeare and Appropriation/Rewriting Shakespeare
*Shakespeare in Translation

PROPOSAL DEADLINE: January 16, 2004
