Medieval Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age (MMSDA): 2-6 May 2011
The Institute of English Studies (London) is pleased to announce the third
year of this AHRC-funded course in collaboration with the University of
Cambridge, the Warburg Institute, and King's College London.
The course is open to arts and humanities doctoral students registered at UK
institutions. It involves five days of intensive training on the analysis,
description and editing of medieval manuscripts in the digital age to be
held jointly in Cambridge and London. Participants will receive a solid
theoretical foundation and hands-on experience in cataloguing and editing
manuscripts for both print and digital formats.
The first part of the course involves morning classes and then visits to
libraries in Cambridge and London in the afternoons. Participants will view
original manuscripts and gain practical experience in applying the morning's
themes to concrete examples. In the second part we will address the
cataloguing and description of manuscripts in a digital format with
particular emphasis on the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). These sessions
will also combine theoretical principles and practical experience and
include supervised work on computers.
The course is aimed principally at those writing dissertations which relate
to medieval manuscripts, especially those on literature, art and history.
There are no fees, but priority will be given to PhD students funded by the
AHRC. Class sizes are limited to twenty and places are
'first-come-first-served' so early registration is strongly recommended.
