Romantic Shakespeare

In conjunction with the theme of a future issue of the Shakespeare Yearbook, "Romantic Shakespeare" the journal seeks abstracts for a proposed Special Session at the 2007 Annual meeting of the MLA in Chicago. Proposals are welcome that explore the editing or interpretation of Shakespeare and early modern literature in the Romantic period, as well as the impact of early modern literature on the literary production of writers associated with the English Romantic Movement.

Please submit title and 100-word abstract of proposed essays along with a brief scholarly bio by March 1, 2007 to the General Editor, Douglas A. Brooks (dbrooks@tamu.edu). Digital submissions as e-mail attachments in Rich Text Format or Microsoft Word only. Do not send CVs. To be considered for this session, prospective contributors must be members of the MLA by March 1, 2007.

The Shakespeare Yearbook is a broadly based international annual of scholarship relating to Shakespeare, his time, and his impact on later periods.
