From Mary Franck <[log in to unmask]>
> I announce a workshop in what appears to be yet another
>sub-discipline of drinking history: the relationship between drinking
>institutions and the arts. The following scholars will examine ways in
>which taverns, alehouses, cafe’s and other societies have fostered song,
>poetry and theater, as well as ways in which the latter reflect the
>activities and values of these drinking societies. Two roundtables are
>scheduled for Saturday, November 6 in Boston, Mass. Audiences must
>register for one or both sessions but will pay no fees. They can join in
>the discussions.
