Welcome

Following the opening of The Theatre in 1576, an innovative relationship developed between the newly-permanent space of the stage and the physical place of the theatre. 

The early modern period saw England establishing its first colonies in the New World, but its ideas and expectations about foreign nations, travel and its identity as a political and economic power on the global stage were influenced largely by its experiences in other distant but familiar nations.

Draft programme for SRS2012 now available. Please could you take the time to check that the details for your paper/ panel are correct. If you have issues of timetabling please contact us directly, but at present we will not be negotiating the programme.

Panel Organisers must contact your panel members directly as we do not have all contact details. You are responsible for your panel members being reminded to register and for checking the details of your panels. Obviously we will be cross-referencing and programming this, but please help by ensuring that you have passed on details of registration and programming to your panel members.

Chairs will be confirmed soon.

Please remember that speakers must register by mid-February: http://www.arts.manchester.ac.uk/srsnc
