The Medieval Poetry Reading Group

We explore medieval poetry across regions and languages, with the guidance of an expert. Texts in the original language and their translation are shared in handouts, read aloud, explained, and discussed. The aim is to gain a global vision of medieval literature through poetry. Since we are driven by curiosity, the reading group evolves according to participants’ interests and interaction.

We warmly welcome academics and students of any level and with any background. Coffee, tea, and biscuits are offered to participants.
