From 17th to 21st of July – Institute for Medieval Studies promotes an exchange of ideas about the Middle Ages. Registrations open.

The Institute for Medieval Studies at the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities of the NOVA University of Lisbon (IEM-FCSH/NOVA) and the Mosteiro da Batalha host this one-week Summer School. The Summer School takes place on 17-21 July, its main objective being to provide a forum for anyone interested in the middle ages, and to support contact and exchange.

We aim to promote dialogue between researchers and the public keen to deepen their knowledge about medieval Portugal. We aim to familiarise students with medieval Portuguese culture, history, art and literature, from the perspective of Portugal’s interactions with its neighbours, tangible as much as metaphorical.

The IEM Summer School courses are open to anyone and include travel and ‘immersive’ visits to a number of historic sites in central Portugal. Every module has a separate study visit.

Teaching is in English by an international team of IEM scholars, combining young and senior, all experts in their field.

Registration open until 15 June [30 vacancies].
