Undergrad symposium 2024
The Standing Committee on Medieval Studies is pleased to announce its forthcoming Undergraduate Symposium in Premodern Studies, which will take place on Friday, 19 April in the Barker Center's Thompson Room. This event is co-sponsored by the Committee on Degrees in History & Literature, the Department of Classics, Early Modern World at Harvard, and the Ancient Studies Program. Contributions are welcome from Harvard College students of papers (fifteen to twenty minutes in length) in any discipline, dealing with any topic in ancient, medieval, and early modern studies. We particularly welcome papers that push against traditional disciplinary and geographical boundaries, exploring themes such as cultural exchange and empire, as well ones that address modern imaginings and appropriations of the deeper past. The deadline for proposals is Monday 25 March; for more information, please see the Call for Papers here.
