Program in Medieval Studies

Lunch will be served.
The 2019-20 Medieval Studies Colloquium highlights members of the medieval faculty who will share and discuss their ongoing work, insights, questions, ideas, and future projects with other members of the medieval community here at Princeton (faculty, graduates, undergraduate certificate students, and IAS members). It will be an opportunity to get together, get to know each other a bit better, and also to get a better sense of the diversity and wide ranging interests and projects of our community.
As on the day of the last colloquium, there will also be an exhibit of the new medieval books, journals, editions etc. which the library acquired recently – a new joint venture of Medieval Studies with Princeton University Library and above all our history librarian Alain St. Pierre. The new publications will be on display in the History Reading Room (A-Floor 7-B) from Monday evening until Tuesday evening.
