ANZAMEMS Postgraduate Advanced Training Seminar (PATS) 2012 – Call For Applications

ANZAMEMS is pleased to announce a Postgraduate Advanced Training Seminar on the theme:

Interdisciplinarity in medieval and early modern research

to be held at the

University of Otago
29–30 August 2012

Most research in medieval and early modern studies involves interdisciplinary work. Whether it be historians working with philosophers, scholars of literature working with classicists or some other combination, research in these fields often requires one to collaborate with and learn skills from scholars in cognate disciplines. This workshop will bring together leading scholars with extensive skills in interdisciplinary research in order to share their skills and experience with postgraduate students and early career researchers. The expert instructors include:

  • Prof Peter Harrison, University of Queensland
  • Dr Stephen Clucas, Birkbeck College, London
  • Dr Takashi Shogimen, University of Otago
  • Professor Lyn Tribble, University of Otago
  • Professor Andrew Bradstock, University of Otago
  • Professor Peter Anstey, University of Otago

The workshop will take place after the Practical knowledges and skill in early modern England conference to be held at the University of Otago from 27–28 August 2012.

Bursaries are available to suitably qualified applicants (see application form).

Inquiries should be forwarded to the workshop convenor, Prof Peter Anstey, University of Otago: peter.anstey@otago.ac.nz
