The University of Rochester, in cooperation with the University of St.
Andrews, Scotland, will sponsor a two-day conference (9-10 May 2016) on Older
Scots Literature and Culture. Seventeen scholars, from the UK, EU, Canada and
the US, will present cutting-edge research in a series of plenary panels. The
event is open to all, from specialists to those in the general public who
simply love Scots poetry and culture. The program and instructions on how to
take part in the proceedings are available at the conference website:
