What better way to close out #britgrad2024 than with Dr Will Green, Dr Anna L Hegland and Dr Sam Jermy on their publication: The Theatrical Legacy of Thomas Middleton, 1624-2024. @drwillgreen.bsky.social
Special mention to AJ Goga, who wins the #britgrad2024 prize for best pun.
Panel 28: 'You have witchcraft in your lips': Cursing, Spellcasting, and Casting Out Genderqueer Supernaturality has been appropriately filled with a mysteriously self-opening door in the
@ShakesInstitute
Reading Room. Marie Corelli is that you? #britgrad2024
Panel 24: 'Tis not the bodies marry, but the minds': Spirits and Souls in Renaissance Literature was absolutely brilliant, thank you so much to our panelists for sharing their research with us! #britgrad2024
We cannot believe it is the final day of #britgrad2024. Best of luck to everyone presenting today!
Panel 19: From Seascapes to Islandscapes Forestscapes: The Environmental and Human Geographies of the Early Modern World was a rich discussion of, amongst other things, how we can use Shakespeare, Fletcher & other EM playwrights to help us tackle the climate crisis. #britgrad2024

Panel 10: Fluids and Fluidity: Aqueous Emotions, Bodies, and Genders in Shakespearean Poetry and Drama was overflowing (no pun intended) with intriguing explorations of the fluidity of gender, humours, and the excess of nature and emotions. #britgrad2024
Panel 5 update: Jess who has covid joined virtually not in-person #britgrad2024 is a place for infecting each other merely with all things early modern (MINUS THE PLAGUE)
Panel 5: ‘He that wears the crown’: Kingship & the Politics of Nationhood in Shakespeare’s English History Plays has begun! Special mention to Jess Snellings, who shared a fab presentation despite having Covid! The plague didn't stop Shakespeare & it won't stop Jess #britgrad2024
Panel 1: 'Reclaiming & (Re) Staging Lost Stories: Shakespeare Through a Postcolonial Lens' has been a fascinating exploration of how Postcolonialism offers opportunities for cultures (if they wish) to reclaim Shakespeare, bringing in colonially erased traditions. #britgrad2024
