9th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
DEPTFORD/LONDON UK (2024)
The Marlowe Society of America is pleased to announce that its 9th International Conference will be held in and around Deptford, London, UK, from 9 to 12 July 2024. Deptford is (in)famous for being the site of Christopher Marlowe's final reckoning and untimely death. Join us as we celebrate, examine, interrogate, and explore Marlowe's corpus of poetry and plays just a stone's throw from this legendary place.
Hosted by MSA President Lucy Munro and held at Goldsmiths, University of London, the conference will feature keynote presentations by Ruben Espinosa (Arizona State University USA), Subha Mukherji (University of Cambridge UK), and Eoin Price (Edinburgh University UK). The program will also include talks by more than 70 international delegates.
Conference registration is open to presenters and auditors. The registration fee includes an opening reception at the historic Deptford Town Hall; a Marlowe-focused walking tour of Deptford; a Research in Action workshop on Marlowe's plays in repertory in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse at Shakespeare's Globe; an informal evening play-reading with members of the Beyond Shakespeare Company; and a publishing workshop for early career scholars. Daily coffee and lunch will be provided. A closing banquet for attendees and their guests at the unique Master Shipwright's House can be added to registration.
