Making Our Case For Early Modern English (Midwest Modern Language Association: )
Milwaukee, WI
Organization: Midwest Modern Language Association
Event: Midwest Modern Language Association:
In keeping with this year’s MMLA conference theme, “The Humanities is Where Hope Lives,” this permanent session is seeking proposals, which discuss how we “make our case” for Early Modern English. How do we explain to our audiences – both in our classrooms and in public settings – on what interests us and motivates our scholarly activities? How do we demonstrate impact and encourage further participation? Where does the study of Early Modern English align with other organizations and initiatives designed to promote the humanities in public life? What has worked for us? What hasn’t?
Please send abstracts of no more than 250 words, along with a brief biographical statement or cv, to Adam Kitzes, adam.kitzes@und.edu, by April 25, 2025.
This panel will meet in-person.
The MMLA conference will take place this November 14-16 at Marquette University, in Milwaukee, WI.
