TWO HUNDRED YEARS OF PUSHKIN
A BICENTENARY CONFERENCE
to be held at Mansfield College, Oxford, 13-15 September, 1999
under the auspices of the Neo-Formalist Circle
Organisers: Joe Andrew and Robert Reid, Keele University, UK
We are pleased to announce this conference. About thirty papers will be
delivered at the conference, organised by the Neo-Formalist Circle to
celebrate the bicentenary in 1999 of the birth of Russia's national - and
greatest - writer. These papers will offer new readings of most of
Pushkin's key works. At the same time they will seek to locate him both
within the later traditions of Russian literature, by means of a series of
comparative discussions, and the broader European context, with examinations
of his influence on, or parallels with non-Russian writers. In keeping with
the traditons of the Neo-Formalist Circle, which celebrates its own more
modest, thirtieth anniversary in 2000, all the papers will be informed with
the latest thinking and approaches in literary theory and practice.
The following are the proposed papers, all confirmed at the present time.
For further information contact Joe Andrew or Robert Reid at
j.m.andrew@lang.keele.ac.uk or r.e.reid@lang.keele.ac.uk. Further details
of the precise programme, booking forms etc will be available in June.
