Overview
What you will study
In University of Groningen's summer school, Medieval Religion students will be challenged by specialists in the field of medieval religion to position and develop their own research in relevant scholarly and cultural contexts. The instructors will give masterclasses from their own specialties (e.g. intellectual history, heretical and reform movements, interreligious relations, liturgy, gender and diversity). Groningen is an eminent place for a school on medieval religion, not only because of the unique expertise of the staff, added to with lecturers from the USA (funded by Fulbright) and Nijmegen, but also because its land- and cityscapes offer a clear example of the presence of the Middle Ages.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- Students can situate medievalist research, especially their own, in current scholarly, societal and cultural debates.
- Students can critically reflect on the uses of contemporary theories of religion to the study of the Middle Ages and, if helpful, apply these creatively in their medievalist research.
- Students can critically reflect on the contemporary relevance and topicality of medieval studies.
- At an advanced level, students get to be trained in the setting up of medievalist research projects and the study of sources, with an eye to publication and acquiring funding.
- Students can assess sources and literature in the interest of their own projects as shown in a presentation and a reflection paper.
