ÌÇÐÄTV

The annual graduate student multidisciplinary conference, organised and run by advanced doctoral students, has become a premier opportunity for maturing scholars to present papers, participate in discussions, and develop collaborations across the field of medieval, Renaissance, and early modern studies at the Newberry Library in Chicago. Participants from a wide variety of disciplines find a supportive and collegial forum for their work, meet future colleagues from other institutions and disciplines, and become familiar with the Newberry and its resources. The 2025 conference CfP can be found here;  

In recent years, several ÌÇÐÄTV PhD students were chosen to either present their papers and even organise the conference itself. Through its consortium membership and strong collaborative links with the Newberry, ÌÇÐÄTV's Centre for the Study of the Renaissance has been able to support these students to enable them to travel to Chicago to attend / organise the annual conferences. Reports on their experiences can be found below, along with selected conference proceedings and detailed conference programmes.
