Sarah Beckwith talk

Please join us for a talk by Sarah Beckwith, Professor of English and Religion, and Chair of Theater Studies at Duke University:

"Confession and Acknowledgment in Shakespeare's Cymbeline."

Sarah Beckwith works on late medieval and early modern religious writing. She is particularly interested in Middle English religious writing in its fully cultural dimensions and in the intersections of writing and religious practice. Her work includes two books, Christ's Body: Identity, Religion and Society in Medieval English Writing (1993) and Signifying God: Social Relation and Symbolic Act in York's Play of Corpus Christi (2001). She is currently working on a book on medieval and Renaissance drama centring on Shakespeare and the transformation of sacramental culture.

We look forward to seeing you there!
