The Canada Milton Seminar is an annual event designed to bring together Canadian and international scholars working not only on Milton but on early modern literature and culture in general. Each year’s gathering typically features a series of plenary speakers as well as two panel sessions, and concludes with a congenial banquet.

This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Canada Milton Seminar will be convened virtually.
