URGENT: MORE INFO ON PURITAN CONFERENCE

Here is the latest info on the puritan day-conference on 25 Feb at the University of Leicester. The conference is intended to give a brief preview of the forthcoming Cambridge Companion to Puritanism edited by John Coffey and Paul Lim.

The cost for students is a bargain: only £10 (and £20 for non-students - still a bargain). However, spaces are limited, so don't delay. The day is designed to be informal and interactive, so students will be able to talk with the speakers over coffee and lunch. You don't want to miss this opportunity! Here is an outline of the day.
