Retrospective
The 13th International Milton Symposium has now successfully concluded, and we the organizers are absolutely elated with the outcome of this much-anticipated gathering. Before signing off on our duties as organizers, the IMS13 team has put together an array of captivating and compelling resources to commemorate this extraordinary event.
First on the list is an awe-inspiring video of the majestic and stunningly beautiful Harmonious Milton concert which we are absolutely certain you will enjoy hearing and watching.
Second is the slideshow of selfies taken by attendees with the Northrop Frye statue at Victoria University which is sure to bring back memories.
It is with utmost sincerity that we express our heartfelt gratitude to the panelists, speakers, contributors, and organizers, for their outstanding and remarkable efforts in making this event the resounding success that it was.
As we draw the curtains on this year’s event, we look forward to next year’s symposium, and we hope to see you there!
