Subject: 	CFP: Unmasquing Prince Henry (3/1/06; 10/26/06-10/29/06)

Call for Papers: "Unmasquing Prince Henry"

It is well-known that Henry, Prince of Wales (1594-1612) was central to 
the Stuart court masque and much of London's civic pageantry toward the 
end of the first decade of James I.  Consequently, critical interest in 
Henry's performance of majesty is too frequently confined to a select 
few authors and literary modes.  Papers unmasquing Prince Henry are 
sought for a panel to be proposed for the Sixteenth-Century Studies 
Conference in Salt Lake City, UT, October 26-9, 2006.  Interdisciplinary 
approaches examining Henry and his court in terms of childhood and 
family life, political or social history, patronage, sport and 
recreation, religious practice, fashion and portraiture, architecture 
and gardening, science and technology, adventuring and colonization, and 
the prince's autopsy and funeral are especially welcome.  Please send 
brief abstracts or detailed enquiries to
