The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 18.0780  Wednesday, 28 November 2007

From:		Mireille Ravassat <mireilleravassat@yahoo.fr>
Date:		Monday, 26 Nov 2007 20:30:48 +0100
Subject:	CFP: Shakespeare's Language

Call for contributions to a collection of essays
on Shakespeare's Language

Shakespeare had a lifelong interest in the various problematics inherent 
to language per se and his own innovative uses of language still baffle 
us, modern-day readers of his texts. Following our seminar in London in 
2006 at the international conference of The European Society for the 
Study of English, we are currently looking for contributions in English 
to a collection of essays on Shakespeare's Language, to be published in 
2008.

Papers are welcome on various techniques of textual investigation 
developed in such fields as stylistic close reading, corpus linguistics, 
cognitive, authorship studies, lexicography, stylometry, etc.

Papers will be refereed by an international committee.

Please send 500-word proposals with some bibliographical references and 
a brief c.v. to: mireilleravassat@yahoo.fr

Deadline for abstracts: 10 January 2008

If you plan to submit a manuscript, please let us know as soon as 
possible. We will only take into consideration papers which have not 
been published yet.

Deadline for submitting papers: 30 March 2008.
