The American Council of Learned Societies is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2013 Collaborative Research Fellowships.
Two of the seven were awarded to medieval projects:
Historian Michael E. Kulikowski (Professor, Pennsylvania State University, College Park) and classicist Gavin A. J. Kelly (Associate Professor, University of Edinburgh) will publish The Landmark Ammianus Marcellinus, an accessible, critical translation of the understudied fourth-century historian, whose writings provide an invaluable window into the dynamics of the late Roman empire.
English literature scholars Heather Blurton (Associate Professor, University of California, Santa Barbara) and Hannah Johnson (Associate Professor, University of Pittsburgh) reconsider the medieval and modern receptions of Chaucer’s anti-Semitic poetry in their proposed monograph Ethics, Criticism, Anti-Semitism: Chaucer’s Prioress and the Jews.
