Towards a Theory of Creative Collaboration
Friday & Saturday, April 17-18
Auditorium of the Mary and David Harrison Institute for
American History, Literature, and Culture
Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library
Participants will investigate both the limits and possibilities of multi-authorship. Collaboration has served as a catch-all term to describe a variety of artistic partnerships that join poets, composers, patrons, bookmakers, editors, and performers in medieval and sixteenth-century culture. The 2009 Müller Colloquium will feature music by Zephyrus and the premiere of pre-modern pieces in the Harrison Institute Small Special Collections Library. For more information >
Sponsored by the Department of French with the generous support of the René Müller Endowment; the University of Virginia Library; The Mary and David Harrison Institute for American History, Literature, and Culture/Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library; the Office of the Dean of Arts and Sciences; the Program in Medieval Studies; the University of Virginia Art Museum; the Office of the Vice Provost for the Arts; and the Departments of English, Art and History. |
