The conference was organised with the support of the School of Language, Literature and International Studies (now School of Humanities and Social Sciences) of the University of Central Lancashire, under the umbrella of the Research Excellence Framework, the new system for assessing the quality of research in UK higher education institutions (co-ordinated by Dr Michael Thomas). The conference was aimed at giving early-career researchers the opportunity to disseminate their research and to network with other researchers, and it was attended by more than 80 people, among which 33 speakers from different corners of the British Isles, and from abroad, including countries such as Bulgaria, Ireland, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, USA, Thailand, China and India. The success of the conference is also owed to the excellent supporting team of volunteers who helped out on the day, and especially Dr Oris Tom-Lawyer, Miguel Angel Saona-Vallejos, Mawaheb Khojah and Baetty from the University of Central Lancashire. The conference was also attended by our guest keynote speaker Prof. Hayo Reinders, currently Dean of the Graduate School of Education and Director of the Anaheim University Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) in TESOL Program

Ov. am. 2,19 e gli impedimenta amoris
No full textLa diciannovesima elegia del II libro degli Amores costituisce un esempio significativo di come le situazioni topiche dell’elegia d’amore vengano riflesse dalla lente deformante della poetica ovidiana, che priva la dinamica elegiaca del color drammatico. Nell’elegia Ovidio chiede al vir della sua nuova donna di non mostrarsi indifferente all’intrigo amoroso perpetrato sotto i suoi occhi, perché la negligente sorveglianza depaupera il codice elegiaco, in cui gli ostacoli sono alimento della passione; se la custodia della donna viene meno, infatti, la conquista d’amore diventa facile e scontata. Ovidio si appropria di un tema dalla consolidata tradizione letteraria (il frutto proibito stimola l’interesse e il desiderio), che affonda le radici nella poesia epigrammatica e, attraverso l’esperienza neoterica, confluisce nell’elegia
Networks of practice across English and Dutch corpora
No full textThis chapter formulates some relatively new lines of enquiry for research in historical orthography, which stem from the concept of a community of practice. The authors propose the idea that communities of practice represent a key bridge across material which inevitably stimulates divergent research interests in the field. They suggest that communities of book producers in England and the Low Countries were not self-standing entities, but were engaged in more or less loose, professional and social interactions, forming networks of practice. The respective histories of English and Dutch had some fundamental similarities with reference to early book production and local organization, and there were links existing even between those working on manuscripts and printed material. This chapter provides useful background information on early book production and large-scale professional networks, with a view to inspiring future researchers to explore the intricate correlation between professional organization, culture and society in the complex framework of early modern Europe
