Opening Thursday with a reception in the Great Hall at Loseley, the conference will comprise papers and responses on Thursday afternoon and all day Friday 18-19 May, and a tour of Donne sites in Surrey on Saturday morning, 20 May 2000. Also included will be tea/coffee breaks between the panels, Friday tours of the house, lunch, an evening reception, and a banquet on Friday in the conference center.
