The conference aims to open what we hope will be an expansive, mutually enriching dialogue between performance-based approaches to lyric and the current (re)turn to its more literary and aesthetic aspects and effects.
It will be divided in 10 sessions with 47 speakers and discussants from all over the world (US, Greece, Brazil, Italy, UK, Germany, etc). Two 90-minute virtual sessions will be featured each day over Harvard Zoom, starting at 6pm EET/11am EDT. During the sessions, speakers will present 10-minute overviews of their papers, which will be pre-circulated to all registered participants before the conference, to be followed by a brief Questions & Answers session moderated by the discussants of each session.
