Epigraphy and its Afterlife

The aim of this two-day conference, to be held on 3-4 July, 1998, is to explore responses to inscriptions through the ages, from Late Antiquity to the 20th century. Two major themes will be the rediscovery of actual inscriptions and the ways in which they have been given new life by being reinvented in new forms.

A provisional programme is available on the Centre's WWW site. Further details can be obtained from Alison Cooley at Corpus Christi College, Oxford OX1 4JF (alison.cooley@ccc.ox.ac.uk).
