These texts are works-in-progress, awaiting advice and commentary; upon which they will be updated. Contact Brian Holmes for that, at bhcontinentaldrift (*) gmail.com. Each seminar features at least two speakers but not all have contributed written texts. Check the recordings for the other presentations.
Most texts don’t have footnotes, but the basic references on which they are built can be found in the Readings and Bibliography section.
