Dr. Emily S. Beck Co-Founds South Carolina Medievalists Group

Along with Dr. Caroline Dunn of Clemson University, Professor Emily S. Beck has co-founded the South Carolina Medievalists Group, an informal body of professional scholars of all disciplines – faculty and students alike – based in South Carolina. The group meeting provides the opportunity for medievalists and premodernists to connect with other researchers throughout our state and engage in informal conversations about current academic approaches and the state of medieval research and teaching in South Carolina. We welcome professionals in any area or discipline relating to medieval or premodern studies, as well as those engaged in interdisciplinary and pedagogical approaches.

The current group includes researchers in a broad range of academic disciplines. For more information, or to join the email list send a message to: scmedievalists@gmail.com.

The inaugural group meeting will be held in Clemson, SC on September 24, 2016.
