Barnard, 24th Annual Med Ren Conference: “Matters of the Word”

Saturday, December 6, 9am-7:30pm

Matters of the Word will explore issues of textual materiality in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. We will consider both the material upon which words are transmitted (parchment, paper, wood, marble, bodies, etc.), as well as the inscribed object’s visual aspects (illustrations, etc.). Interdisciplinary at its core, this conference examines not only the intersection of literary studies and art history, but also addresses central concerns of the history of science, history of law, aesthetic philosophy, museum conservation, and book history.

All sessions will be held in Barnard Hall, 3009 Broadway, New York, NY 10027
