will take place live on Thursday September 17 from 3-5 PM
English Department Seminar Room, GWU
Registration has closed and the seminar is full, but we still want you to participate. Download the three papers and their attachments here.
On Thursday Sept. 10, I will post at In the Middle the start of an e-discussion to which you are most cordially invited to contribute. This conversation will form, we hope, a vital part of the seminar. Comments posted at ITM will become part of the live conversation on Sept. 17. A summary of proceedings will be posted at ITM as well.
Eileen Joy has agreed to live twitter the seminar as it unfolds. Short of installing teleportation devices (for which I submitted the work order last week, but they are unlikely to arrive in time), it's the best way we can bring this event to as many interested participants as possible. The format is experimental; please help us to make it a success.
The paper authors/presenters are:
- Kathleen Biddick, "Dead Neighbor Archives and Messianic Time"
- Julia Lupton, "Paul Shakespeare: Exegetical Exercises"
- Jonathan Gil Harris, ""The Untimely Mammet of Verona"
