Subject: CFP: 2010 OVSC (submission deadline extended until 9/6/10)
The submission deadline for this year's Ohio Valley Shakespeare Conference has
been extended by one week (until September 6th, 2010)
Please see our webpage at http://www.marietta.edu/departments/English/OVSC
The planning committee of the Ohio Valley Shakespeare Conference is seeking
abstracts and paper proposals that investigate the gaps, lacunae,
indeterminacies, omissions, silences, and "undecidabilities" in the work of
Shakespeare and/or his contemporaries. Papers can focus on individual works
(E.g. what happened to Lear's Fool? Why is Isabella silent?), or on cultural,
dramaturgical, cinematic, theoretical, and editorial issues. How do actors,
directors and editors deal with the inevitable gap between players and
performers? How do biases and the historical treatment of Shakespeare reflect
and affect appreciation? How have biographers dealt with Shakespeare's early
years?
In addition to welcoming contributions from faulty and independent scholars, for
the past five years the OVSC has awarded prizes to the top papers given at the
meeting by graduate and undergraduate conferees.
Abstracts or proposals are due by June 15, 2010 (early decision) or August 27th
(final deadline). All inquiries should be directed to:
* Russ Bodi
* English Department
* PO Box 10,000
* Toledo, OH 43699-1947
or e-mail
