[Milton-L] Symposium on Milton's Samson

[Jeffrey Shoulson]

Dear Colleagues,

Members of this list may recall a notice I circulated in early  
February about a two-day symposium that the University of Miami and  
Florida International University were co-hosting on Milton's Samson  
and Religious Violence.

The event was, I think, a great success, thanks in large part to the  
enthusiastic participation of some eminent Milton scholars:  Stanley  
Fish, Feisal Mohamed, John Rumrich, Regina Schwartz, and Susanne Woods.

I'm pleased to inform you that videos of the round-table discussion  
in which these scholars participated are now available for viewing at  
the website of the newly established University of Miami Center for  
the Humanities.  Here's the link:

I'd be very happy to hear responses to the content of our discussion,  
which has also prompted the proposal of a volume of essays on the  
subject to which members of this list are welcome to propose  
contributions.

Best wishes,

Jeffrey Shoulson
