Following the success of Latin and Vernacular in Renaissance Iberia I-V (1998-2012), we propose a sixth conference to focus on a cluster of genres, to be held at the Institute of Modern Languages Research, Senate House University of London, on 4 March 2016.

Up to nine papers of twenty minutes, in English, Spanish or Catalan, are invited on the development by vernacular and Latin authors of the Iberian Peninsula of what André Jolles in his monograph of 1930 called Einfache Formen: folktales, fairy tales, wonder tales, fables, anecdotes, riddles, aphorisms, witticisms and inscriptions. The period of reception will be from the fifteenth to the seventeenth centuries.

Submissions from postgraduate students will be welcomed. Proposals for papers should be sent to Dr Alejandro Coroleu by 15 November 2015.
