SHAKSPER is the international electronic conference for Shakespearean researchers, instructors, and students, however no academic qualifications are required and anyone interested in English Literature, the Renaissance, or Drama is welcome to join. It currently includes 1100 SHAKSPEReans (many of whom are prominent in the field) from 29 countries. Like the international Shakespeare Association conferences, SHAKSPER offers announcements, scholarly papers, and the formal exchange of ideas -- but SHAKSPER also offers on-going opportunities for spontaneous informal discussion, eavesdropping, peer review, and a sense of worldwide scholarly community. The daily SHAKSPER digests are organized by subject for the reader's convenience.
