The Queen Elizabeth I Society will meet during the South-Central Renaissance Conference to be held April 12 – 14, 2017 in Atlanta, Georgia. The QEIS seeks short, cogent talks on matters Elizabethan. We welcome work on history, literature, art, queenship, or other topics related to Elizabeth I and her reign.
An online abstract submission form is now available on the South-Central Renaissance Conference site. When completing the submission form, please be sure to check “Queen Elizabeth Society” for item 13, “Please mark in which category your abstract should be considered.” Once you have submitted your abstract, we ask that you send a brief email to QEIS President Catherine Loomis giving her your name and your abstract title. The deadline for submitting abstracts is December 15, 2017.
The SCRC’s call for papers notes that “Your paper will be accepted or rejected on the basis of the 400- or 500-word abstract you submit. If your paper is accepted, your 100-word abstract will be posted online before and during the conference. The online submission form also asks you to submit a 100-word biographical statement.”
The SCRC awards graduate student travel grants; see the SCRC website for details.
The QEIS awards two Sir Francis Drake Travel Grants to graduate students. To be eligible, students must deliver a presentation that exemplifies original and well-articulated scholarship.
All QEIS presenters are eligible for the Agnes Strickland Prize for Best Conference Paper.
We hope you will join us in Atlanta in April. The panels will be enlightening, the discussions lively, and the Queen’s Attic Auction action-packed.
