SUMMARY:Work-in-Progress Session–Summer Mentorship Research Projects
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Stanley Wu (UCLA)\n\nHosted by the Early Modern Re
 search Group\n\nOnline event via Zoom\n\nFor Zoom registration details\, p
 lease email the Early Modern Research Group.\n\nThe Graduate Certificate 
 in Early Modern Studies\, administered by the Center for 17th- &amp\; 18th
 -Century Studies\, offers UCLA graduate students an avenue to explore the 
 increasingly transnational and interdisciplinary nature of early modern st
 udies through specially designated comparative courses and unique fellowsh
 ip and mentoring opportunities.\n\nStudents in the certificate program are
  eligible to apply for competitive Summer Mentorships\, which provide fina
 ncial support to complete one of the certificate requirements: a 25-page p
 aper on an early modern studies topic of interdisciplinary breadth. The Su
 mmer Mentorship affords the opportunity for students to work closely with 
 a Center/Clark Core Faculty member to develop their paper for presentation
  at an academic conference or for potential publication.\n\nThe Early Mode
 rn Research Group\, which meets under the auspices of the UCLA Center for 
 17th- &amp\; 18th-Century Studies and the William Andrews Clark Memorial L
 ibrary\, invites you to attend this work-in-progress session featuring a p
 resentation by a Summer Mentorship awardee. Following the presentation\, t
 he speaker and their faculty mentor welcome feedback from attendees during
  the collaborative discussion.\n\nStanley Wu will present “When Did the 
 Post-Reformation Begin? The Origin Myth of Elizabeth's England.” He is m
 entored by Debora K. Shuger\, Distinguished Professor\, UCLA Department of
  English.\n\nSuccessive religious changes during the English Reformation i
 ncited major controversy among Elizabethan Protestants over collaboration 
 and conformity\, threatening to destroy a fragile consensus. Higher-ups sh
 rouded these plural histories with a singular narrative that became the co
 re myth of the English church. Residual memories became a platform for res
 istance that foreshadowed Civil War hostility a century later.\n\nStanley 
 Wu is a Ph.D. student in the Department of English at UCLA\, where he spe
 cializes in Reformation literature and history. His ongoing project consid
 ers the extensive influence of John Foxe’s Book of Martyrs on religion
  and thought in Elizabethan England. His work focuses on the Tudor period\
 , although he is attentive to historiography and theorizes diachronic appr
 oaches to texts.
