Th e Association for Slavic, East European and Eurasian Studies (ASEEES; formerly known as the American Association for the Advancement of Slavic Studies, or AAASS) is the largest organization in the United States for scholars whose research involves Eastern Europe and the countries that formerly were part of the Soviet Union. A wide variety of disciplines are represented in the organization: historians, political scientists, literary scholars, linguists, fi lm scholars, sociologists, anthropologists, economists, geographers, etc. Typically, more than 2000 people attend the annual conventon, which is held in various cities throughout North America. During the 1980s and 1990s nearly every year saw at least one panel (out of the several hundred at each convention) devoted to versifi cation. However, with the retirement of several American verse scholars it became increasingly diffi cult to hold such panels on a regular basis, and for the several years immediately prior to 2014 there had not been any that focused on verse theory. In 2014 several scholars from Eastern Europe and Russia agreed to attend the ASEEES conference, which allowed for the organization of two panels. At the fi rst of these, “Versifi cation in the 21st Century” Tatyana Vladimirovna Skulacheva spoke on “What’s New in Russian Verse Study.” Th ree developments were highlighted in her talk. First, she referred to what she termed a “new wave” in the study of non-classical verse. If scholars such as M. L. Gasparov carried out the fundamental work in defi ning and initially analysing these metres, then scholars today are engaged in the tasks of looking at recent developments in their usage and fi nding new approaches to analysing their essential features. Second, she referred to the use of computer-aided analysis in verse studies. Computers have for some time been used to look at matters such as phonetics, but now the attention of researchers is turning to applying the power of computer analysis to additional aspects of verse study. For many years individual researchers have manually (and painstakingly) noted the metres and rhythm of individual poems; computers off er the promise of dealing with vast bodies of verse and providing data on a scale not previously possible. Much of her talk was devoted to the recent application of brain studies to the analysis of poetic texts. Aft er initially studying and determining the most basic components of verse across a number of languages, this fi eld has now started to Studia Metrica et Poetica 2.1, 2015, 156–159
