Premodern Manuscripts: Hands-On Explorations

The Global Past Research Initiative (GPRI) seeks answers to this question by developing a new model of post-disciplinary knowledge production — one that promotes equity in the present by exploring the diversity of the past.

Composed of three interlocking research clusters, the initiative involves three international workshops aimed at sparking dialogue and building research capacity for graduate students and scholars of the premodern world.

These workshops will focus on major methodological and theoretical problems and their implications for our individual research areas, as collaborators bring newfound insights and conceptual frameworks to bear on specific settings, sources, and collections.
