Subject:    Seeking Contributors: Encyclopedia of Elizabethan England

Dear Colleagues,

I'm seeking scholars interested in contributing to the forthcoming 
Encyclopedia of Elizabethan England. This work will be published by 
ABC-CLIO, the leading academic reference publishing company.

This multi-volume reference work is aimed at advanced secondary school 
or undergraduate audiences covering subjects important to the English 
experience from the accession of Elizabeth to the death of William 
Shakespeare. Entries will also touch on broader elements of British 
culture and the early modern world as appropriate. The finished 
encyclopedia will include overview essays and select primary documents 
along with entries reflecting a range of important topics for the era. 
Entries are still unassigned for many individuals, texts, events, 
institutions and cultural movements from a wide-ranging list.

Scholars with an interest in early modern English literature, culture 
and history should email the editor  --  Janice Liedl at 
jliedl@laurentian ca  --  with a brief description of their research 
interests and relevant qualifications to receive a list of available 
related topics. Graduate students who are working in the area are also 
welcome to contribute as authors.

All contributors to the Encyclopedia receive author credits and access 
to the online version of the encyclopedia. Contributors who write 3000 
words or more also receive a minimum credit of $300 toward the purchase 
of any ABC-CLIO print or e-book publication, including the Encyclopedia.
