Conference at Radboud University in Nijmegen, 26-27 November. 

 

In the context of the interdisciplinary research project ‘Text, Transmission and Reception' of the faculty of Arts of the Radboud University Nijmegen, the symposium aims to stimulate reflection on aspects of the New (or Material) Philology in relation to the study of Neo-Latin texts. Whereas in the past philologists commonly focused on the study of the text in its original context and its most authentic form, followers of New Philology are interested in the various forms and meanings of a given text in the course of its reception by successive communities of readers through the ages.
