About<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The eighteenth annual Marco Manuscript Workshop will take place Friday, February 3, and Saturday, February 4, 2023, at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The workshop is organized by Professors Charles Sanft (History) and Roy M. Liuzza (English) and is hosted by the Marco Institute for Medieval & Renaissance Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manuscripts bear the marks of the time and place of their creation. While many remain rooted to their place of origin, others range widely in the world as gifts, devotional objects or collectible treasures. The 2023 Marco Manuscript Workshop explores manuscripts that connect readers to the world or that record encounters between people in different places, reflecting attempts to understand the world, its shape, and its centers and margins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The workshop is open to scholars and graduate students in any field who are engaged in textual editing, manuscript studies, epigraphy, or similar topics. Individual sessions will be devoted to each project; presenters will introduce their text and its context, discuss their approach to working with the material, and exchange ideas and information with other participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
