The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 14.015 Friday, 3 January 2003 From: Harry Keyishian <This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. > Date: Thursday, 2 Jan 2003 14:38:08 -0500 Subject: On-line Faculty for a Course in "Global Shakespeare" I am teaching a course in Spring 2003 entitled "Global Shakespeare." Using the internet extensively, students will research the reception of Hamlet and A Midsummer Night's Dream in several non-American cultures. My university encourages the use of "virtual" faculty to advise and guide students. These may be from abroad, or in the US but knowledgeable of Shakespeare and production "abroad." Some payment will be offered, to be negotiated with the appropriate offices here. Anyone interested, please contact me atThis email address is being protected from spambots.

The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 14.014 Friday, 3 January 2003 From: Fiona J Ritchie <This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. > Date: Thursday, 02 Jan 2003 15:04:48 -0000 Subject: Call for Papers: BSA Postgraduate Strand CALL FOR PAPERS: POSTGRADUATE STRAND OF THE BRITISH SHAKESPEARE ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE De Montfort University, Leicester: 29th - 31st August, 2003 Keynote speakers include: Michael Bogdanov; Professor Stanley Wells; Professor Russell Jackson; Professor Catherine Belsey. As part of the academic strand of the forthcoming British Shakespeare Association conference we are developing a number of dedicated postgraduate sessions. These have been organised in order to provide a supportive environment in which to foster co-operation and exchange between postgraduates working on Shakespeare. The sessions are primarily aimed at new postgraduates (including Master's students) and will provide students with an opportunity to present their work in front of their peers and to receive useful feedback. The sessions will follow the format of academic research seminars, with papers pre-circulated to allow maximum time for discussion during the seminar. Submissions are welcomed on all aspects of Shakespeare studies but participants may particularly wish to address the themes of the academic research seminars or of the three panel sessions: Shakespeare in the past / Shakespeare present / Shakespeare in the future. There will also be a session for postgraduates on practical issues (how to write conference papers, publication, job hunting, etc) with several recently completed PhD students from across the UK. The postgraduate sessions will take place on the morning of Saturday 30th August, in order to minimise costs whilst also allowing participants to take part in a broad range of other activities at the BSA conference. The postgraduate convenor, Fiona Ritchie (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. ), will be delighted to answer any further queries about the postgraduate strand of the conference. Abstracts of 150-200 words should be submitted by email to the above address by 31 March 2003. The deadline for completion of papers will be 30 June 2003.

The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 14.013 Thursday, 2 January 2003 From: H. R. Greenberg <This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. > Date: Wednesday, 1 Jan 2003 12:07:23 EST Subject: Mrs. Dalloway/The Hours no POB at all NO SHAKESPEARE EITHER [Editor's Note: Please send all responses directly to Dr. Greenberg atThis email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. -Hardy] In preparation for a review of THE HOURS, I am reading MRS DALLOWAY for the first time. Remarkable book in so many ways -- but I was particularly struck by Woolf's use of similes which I can only call Homeric in aptness and beauty. Also noting the one day in one life comprises all of life forever narrative trajectory, obvious resonances with both ULYSSES and FINNEGAN'S WAKE come to mind. Not being anything approaching a Woolf scholar, can anyone out there tell me about Woolf's view of Joyce. Did Mrs Dalloway appear before Ulysses -- can't remember the latter publication date. What did she think about Joyce -- one also notes her own particular pass at stream of consciousness writing which for me in many ways reminds me of the last chapter of Anna Karenina rather than Joyce, in terms of Anna's famous inner meditation as she goes to her death. Any help here greatly appreciated. Best to all and happy new year -- HRGreenberg MD ENDIT _______________________________________________________________ S H A K S P E R: The Global Shakespeare Discussion List Hardy M.

Please put me down (with a particularly large signature) in the latter camp. I cannot be bemused knowing how Frontline's reputation will give credence to all this malarkey. I will not watch. The trailers on PBS are enough to raise my ire. Shame, PBS and Frontline. For all the reasons well-stated in this thread.

Yours in post-Yuletide dyspepsia, Graham Hall. _______________________________________________________________ S H A K S P E R: The Global Shakespeare Discussion List Hardy M.

The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 14.011 Thursday, 2 January 2003 From: Kezia Vanmeter Sproat <This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. > Date: Wednesday, 1 Jan 2003 16:43:46 EST Subject: 13.2465 Re: Questions Comment: Re: SHK 13.2465 Re: Questions Thomas Larque writes: >A feminist reading is rather too modern to be likely to have >occurred to a Renaissance author, who - even if he had >proto-feminist sympathies - wouldn't have thought in terms >of women winning over a "patriarchal society" at all. Does anyone really "know" Renaissance authors and what they would NOT think of? Sounding parochial here, to make a point: Until Nancy Pelosi or Hillary Clinton or both, or Elizabeth Dole, etc. have been elected President of the USA in five or more consecutive 90% landslides, few readers in my native land can imagine what Shakespeare's life was like. The head, undisputed, of the body politic/society in his formative and early creative years was a woman. We must struggle mightily to begin to get near his "sympathies." Earlier we "listened to the play." Can we "listen to the corpus" as well? Why are the great world-shattering tragedies Jacobean? COULD IT BE that his very supportive infrastructure was crumbling? Why did he retire early? Look again at the Princess of France in LLL, and at Henry VIII, Act V.
