Political Ideas and Cultural Production: Visualising, Narrating, and Performing Politics in the Early Modern World

PhD Workshop

Feb 6, 3.00 – 5.00 (FAB 3.29)

This is an informal workshop for PhD students from across the Faculty of Arts. The central questions to be addressed will be: how can a certain idea of the state or other political body be visualised, narrated or staged? What social, diegetic, or stylistic devices are deployed to represent that idea across different media?

We shall be delighted to hear from any PhD student wishing to give a brief presentation (c.10-15 minutes) related to the workshop theme. This is not intended as a symposium of polished papers, but a more open discussion, and so we would like presentations that focus on a particular research problem with which someone is grappling, or that discuss a particular object or case study or other source material.

Dr Metlica’s visit has been made possible by generous funding from the Humanities Research Centre.
