49th International Congress on Medieval Studies
8-11 May 2014
[Published on our first website on 8 January 2014, with updates there and here]
We announce the program for our sponsored and co-sponsored sessions at the next International Congress on Medieval Studies, when we will celebrate our anniversary year, along with that of one of our co-sponsors, the Societas Magica. 2014 marks the 20th anniversary of the Societas Magica. For the Research Group on Manuscript Evidence, it marks our 15th anniversary as a nonprofit educational organization and our 25th anniversary as an international scholarly society. This is the ninth year of our co-sponsorship with the Societas Magica, and the first year of co-sponsorship with the Center for Medieval and Early Modern Studies at the University of Florida. The Events at this Congress celebrate these shared accomplishments.
This year, with the transition to our second, updated website (begun in 2014 and completed in 2015), we began to issue the announcements for a given Congress in a series of blogposts, rather than overwriting its statements, which had left only the final state in view. Here we offer the Congress Announced, with more to come.
