Remembering the Reformation Conference — 7th–9th September 2017 7 September 2017 – 10:00am Murray Edwards College, Cambridge
The Call for Papers is now open — please click on the link below to download further details.
This three-day conference aims to explore the links between Reformation, remembering and forgetting across late medieval and early modern Europe. We are eager to break out of the restricting paradigms of nationalist historiography and literary studies and to explore the memory of different varieties of Protestant, Catholic and radical Reformation comparatively and alongside each other. We also seek to stimulate discussion of how the memory cultures associated with magisterial and state-led Reformations, and those that resulted in the formation and consolidationof institutional churches, compare with those that were contested, thwarted, and reversed.
The confirmed plenary speakers are:
- John Arnold (University of Cambridge)
- Philip Benedict (Institut d’Histoire de la Reformation, Geneva)
- Simon Ditchfield (University of York)
- Dagmar Freist (Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg)
