Description

The Medieval and Renaissance Drama Society (MRDS) continues its annual tradition of inviting all scholars new to early drama studies, especially graduate students and recent Ph.D.s (within 4 years from the degree), to submit their work to the “New Voices” panel, which will consist of four 15-minute papers. The MRDS will showcase the work of scholars new to the field and provide an opportunity for experienced scholars to support them, respond to their work, and welcome all to early drama studies.
