For a proposed session at the Annual Renaissance Society of America conference to be held
in Miami, Florida 22-24 March 2007:

Immigrants from the continent (strangers or aliens) comprised approximately ten percent of
London's population, and significant numbers of Dutch, French, Flemish, and Walloon
immigrants lived throughout England in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. This panel
seeks papers that address the cultural, legal, literary, economic, or political dynamics of
immigration in early modern England. Papers may address (but are not limited to) the
representation of immigrants in early modern English texts, the writings or material artifacts
of early modern immigrants, interactions between immigrants and English, etc. Papers
addressing the panel topic from literary, art historical, cultural studies, or labor studies
perspectives are especially welcome. Please send questions and/or abstracts (150 word max)
for 15-20 minute papers to Scott oldenburg at sko2_at_buffalo.edu by May 15, 2006.
