Expand your understanding of book history during a Rare Book School course this summer! Our five-day intensive courses on the history of manuscript, print, and digital materials will be offered online and in person at the University of Virginia and other partner institutions.
Among our forty-two courses, we are pleased to offer several pertinent to those involved in medieval & Renaissance studies. The following is a sample of the breadth of the RBS offerings:
— B-65 English Bookbindings, 1450–1850, taught by David Pearson (Research Fellow at the University of London’s Institute of English Studies)
— M-20 Seminar in Western Codicology, taught by M. Michèle Mulchahey (Holder of the Leonard E. Boyle Chair in Manuscript Studies at the Pontifical Institute of Medieval Studies)
— M-105v Using Digitized Manuscripts, taught by Dot Porter (Curator of Digital Research Services at the Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies)
Applications received will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Visit our website at www.rarebookschool.org for course details, instructions for applying, and evaluations from past students. Contact us at rbsprograms@virginia.edu with questions.
