Next ERS meeting: Thu. 17 March 2011 (Deborah Moniuk, Juliet O’Brien)

6:00 p.m., FHIS Lounge (Buchanan Tower 799)

DEBORAH MONIUK
“Comings and Goings: The Journey of Transportation-Related Loan Words in English and French”
and JULIET O’BRIEN
“François Rigolot, Renaissance Medievalist”

Further information on the O’Brien talk is here.

(Also, green may be worn and there may be some talk of St Patrick and of the 150th anniversary of the Risorgimento. The challenge being to bring together these two extremes of the “early Romance”…)

Bonus Hiberno-French connection, related to transportation and to Rigolotian Rabelaisianism.
