The Skeptic

[Published on 23 September 2014, with updates]

With the completion of the Call for Papers and the reception of proposals for papers by 15 September 2014, the Research Group on Manuscript Evidence plans its 5 sponsored and co-sponsored sessions for the next Congress.   Their programs now settle into place for notification to the Congress by the deadline of 1 October.  Following that process, we will be able to announce the programs and, in time, publish abstracts of papers as their authors might wish.

The next Congress will be the tenth year of our co-sponsorship with the Societas Magica and the second year of co-sponsorship with the Center for Medieval and Early Modern Studies at the University of Florida.  Our 2014 sessions with these organizations are reported and illustrated in our 2014 Congress Report.  This is the first year of co-sponsorship for the Reception also with the Index of Christian Art at Princeton University.

2012 Congress

January 1, 2014 in Abstracts of Conference Papers, Bembino, Conference Announcement, ICMS, International Congress on Medieval Studies, Kalamazoo

47th International Congress on Medieval Studies

10–13 May 2012

[First published on our first website on *15 December 2011, with updates there and here]

Our four Sponsored and Co-Sponsored Sessions at the 2012 Congress examined the material culture and production of written records in Western Europe and beyond, and the dispersal, recovery, and preservation of those works in various forms and widespread locations.  Besides these interlinked subjects, our highlighted genre was “Dream Books”, appearing in multiple manifestations in both manuscript and print.

One Session was the second in our series at the Congress on “Medieval Writing Materials”.  Its series (2011–2014 and, intended, 2016) is listed in our Sponsored Conference Sessions.

This year, for the first time, after the debut of a single illustrated Poster for one of our sponsored Sessions at the 2011 Congress, an illustrated Posters accompanied both of our own Sponsored Sessions.  Since 2015, the full series of illustrated Posters for Congress Sessions and other Events appear in our Gallery of Posters on Display.
