This conference is devoted to the study of the Brut tradition in all of its variety. It is the first scholarly conference about the Brut tradition as a whole. It brings together over 30 established academics, early career scholars, and graduate students from around the world, working in a range of disciplines (e.g. English, French, Medieval and Modern Languages, History), providing a forum for comparative, multilingual, cross-period, and cross-disciplinary investigations of Brut-related texts and manuscripts. It builds on the triennial meetings of the International Lawman’s Brut Society, and while Lawman’s Brut remains an important subject of inquiry this event also brings many more Bruts under the spotlight. Ultimately, ‘Brut in New Troy’ aims to facilitate multi-disciplinary and international scholarly discussions and collaborations, and in so doing it hopes to help to transform the field of Brut studies.
