CfP: Society for Neo-Latin Studies: Philip Ford Annual Postgraduate Day in London

The Society for Neo-Latin Studies is holding its annual Philip Ford Postgraduate Day in London on 20th March 2020.

The focus of the event will be 'Neo-Latin and the Vernacular'. There will be an interactive session on bilingual writing/self-translation in the early modern period led by Dr Sara Miglietti and a talk by Professor Ingrid de Smet on methodology in translating Neo-Latin texts. Additionally, postgraduates and early career researchers will present their papers in two panels (see CFP below). The event will also be an excellent opportunity for MA students and postgraduate, post-doctoral and early career researchers to find out more about Neo-Latin projects, discuss ideas, and meet other scholars in the discipline. 
PLEASE REGISTER IN ADVANCE We may be able to contribute some travel bursaries, and please email Lucy Nicholas (lucy.nicholas@sas.ac.uk) prior to the event in this regard.
