November 5, Hunt Library--John Wall's Virtual Paul's Cross Project. Please join us!


I am very pleased to share with you this note from John Wall (English) on the eagerly anticipated installation of his Virtual Paul's Cross Project in Hunt Library. This interdisciplinary project provides participants with the opportunity to experience a lecture by John Donne in a recreation of the outdoor space at the pre-London Fire St. Paul's Cathedral. It's a truly remarkable project, and I urge you to join John and his colleagues on November 5. 

Folks, plans are set for opening the Installation of my Virtual Paul's Cross Project in the Hunt Library on November 5th, 2013

There will be two events, a formal opening at 10 am and a symposium at 2:00 pm, all in the Teaching and Visualization Lab of Hunt Library.

Please spread the word. I would be especially grateful for help getting an audience to the Symposium. We have guest speakers and it would be good to have students and colleagues in attendance.
 
Speakers include John Schofield, archaeologist and architectural historian at St Paul's Cathedral in London, also our own Tom Barrie (CoD), our colleague Anne MacNeil (UNC), and Carol Symes (History, Theatre, and Medieval Studies, University of Illinois) and Heather Minor (History of Architecture, University of Illinois). 

Additional information is available here: http://vpcp.chass.ncsu.edu/installation-hunt-library/

Please help me spread the word! Hope to see you there. We will show off the installation and have much talk about DH.
