We are putting together a panel on mythicalanimals in the Renaissance for the Renaissance Society of America conference in 2011. In this dawning age of science, did people reallybelieve in their reality ? It is common to see science and myth coexist inliterature, scientific and philosophical treatises, travel journals, curiositycabinets, etc. Where was the boundary between the real and the fabulous, theplausible and the implausible? We are also preparing a volume of collected essays on the subject, and we are seeking contributors to our volume.Please send abstracts to iiakouni@kent.eduand jfujitani@apu.edu
