The Institute of Medieval and Early Modern Studies (IMEMS) at Durham University is happy to announce the launch our online Learning Centre, which currently offers two new online palaeography courses:
- Latin European Medieval Palaeography, run by Dr Manuel Muñoz García.
- Early Modern English Palaeography (1500-1700), run by Dr Arnold Hunt.
You can find full details on our website: www.imemsdurhamlearn.com. Our courses will provide quality skills training to facilitate working with manuscripts, whether at graduate level or for those working in a professional environment as a librarian, archivist, etc.
The first courses will run from April 29th to May 10th 2024. These are online, full-time courses that will consist of asynchronous content and also daily live sessions. Students will receive feedback on a portfolio of transcriptions after the course, as well as continued access to the asynchronous material for two months.
There are limited spaces (24 students per course), so applications are now open. We would appreciate it if you could circulate this announcement via your networks.
The final deadline for applications is March 30th, but we encourage early applications as places will be offered to successful candidates on a first-come, first-served basis.
With best wishes,
