Paul Strohm, probably the most influential figure in medieval English
literary study, is speaking at UC Irvine on Monday February 6. His
schedule is too tight to come out to Riverside, but he, and Elizabeth
Allen, of Irvine, have graciously invited us to go there. I have rented a
van to leave for UCI at the flagpole in the front of Hinderaker
turnaround at 2:00 PM. So far, I have the following people signed up.
Please let me know if you wish to join us:<br><br>
John Ganim<br>
Nadia Guth<br>
Leona Fisher<br>
Joanna Scott<br>
Wallace Cleaves<br><br>

Paul Strohm joined the Columbia faculty in fall 2003, and was formerly
J.R.R. Tolkien Professor of English Language and Literature at the
University of Oxford. His area of principal interest is medieval
literature with a recent emphasis on transitions from 'medieval' to
'early modern.' His teaching and research have concerned the 'affiliated
text,' with special attention to textuality and history and to genre and
social change. Publications include: <i>Social Chaucer</i> (Harvard,
1989, 1994); <i>Hochon's Arrow: The Social Imagination of
Fourteenth-Century Texts</i> (Princeton, 1992); <i>England's Empty
Throne: Usurpation and Textual Legitimation, 1399-1422</i> (Yale UK,
1998); <i>Theory and the Premodern Text </i>(Minnesota, 2000);
<i>Politique: Languages of Statecraft Between Chaucer and Shakespeare</i>
(Notre Dame, 2005). </blockquote>
