LONDON FORUM FOR AUTHORSHIP STUDIES

Welcome to the LONDON FORUM FOR AUTHORSHIP STUDIES.

The London Forum for Authorship Studies, established in January 2005, is intended to provide a focal point for discussing the aims and methods of authorship studies.

The Forum meets regularly in the Institute to hear papers on authorship issues in all areas of English Literature. Its goals will be: to advance understanding of the methodologies of attribution studies; to give younger scholars the opportunity to present their work and benefit from more experienced practitioners; and to organize workshops on electronic computation and statistical methods.

Speakers so far have included MacDonald Jackson, Joseph Rudman, Richard Proudfoot, Tom Merriam, Marina Tarlinskaja, Gary Taylor, Richard Forsyth, Brian Vickers, Marcus Dahl and Lene Petersen.

The Forum announces its activities and meetings on this website and posts abstracts of papers presented at meetings (password-protected area for members).

Steering Commitee: Brian Vickers, Institute of English Studies (Chair); Warwick Gould, Institute of English Studies; Richard Proudfoot, King’s College London; MacDonald Jackson, Auckland University; Jonathan Hope, Strathclyde University.

If you are interested in authorship studies, please join us at our meetings or email us.
