In May 2008, three doctoral students of the English Department, NUIG - Grace Windsor, Lisa Padden and Dermot Burns- organized a three day conference for postgraduate students of Medieval Studies. The conference was a major success, with twenty-two delegates from Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales and Portugal in attendance. Our theme was Power in the Middle Ages: the cfp, conference program and paper abstracts are available at www.medievalpower.com.
