Summary

Poetics before Modernity aims to encourage and consolidate new work on developments in Western poetics and literary theory from antiquity to 1700. The project provides a variety of outlets—seminar series, conferences, publications—for the most exciting and compelling research in the field, and hopes to foster a community of scholars working on the subject across traditional disciplinary, national, and period boundaries. The conference follows the eponymous seminar series taking place at the University of Cambridge over 2016-17. 

The conference proceedings will be published as an edited volume or special issue.
