medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I have made some minor changes to my previous message, especially
having appended and reformatted the addresses to whom people should
write regarding the future of palaeography at King's College London
(and, by extension, the United Kingdom). -- George
*****
King’s College London is undertaking what they call ‘strategic
disinvestment’ and have recently informed our colleague, David Ganz,
that funding for the Chair in Palaeography will cease from 31 August
this year, when David will be out of a job. This is part of a wider
context whereby all academic staff in the School of Arts and
Humanities at King’s have to re-apply for their own jobs before the
1st March. They think this the “most humane way” of losing 22
academic posts.
This is the only established chair in Palaeography in the UK
(previously held by Julian Brown and Tilly de la Mare). The more
people who write in protest the better.
The people to write to are:
Professor Richard Trainor, MA DPhil FRHistS AcSS FKC
The Principal
King’s College
The Strand
London WC2R 2LS
United Kingdom
