Premodern Encounters

To launch the new graduate certificate in Premodern Cultures & Communities, a five-part colloquium series will occur over Spring – Fall 2023. Each colloquium brings together two scholars whose recent work engages with similar themes from different cultural and temporal premodern moments. Rather than formal talks, speakers will initiate a dialogue that places their related works in conversation.
