On Tuesday 7 December 2021 (14.00 CET), Dr. Synnøve Myking (University of Bergen, Norway) will explain about her ongoing research in a paper titled 'Connections between Scandinavia and the Low Countries in the High Middle Ages: Traces in Manuscript Culture'.

Dr. Myking is currently a postdoctoral visiting fellow at the Henri Pirenne Institute for Medieval Studies. She is a specialist of high medieval mobility and transnational cultural connections, with a focus on manuscript culture and the international spread of manuscripts to and from Scandinavia. Dr. Myking is currently a postdoc at the University of Bergen (Department of Linguistic, Literary and Aesthetic Studies), where she works on her latest project FLANDRIA:  Flanders, Norway, and Denmark: Relations and Intertextual Exchanges in the High Middle Ages (ca. 1080–1383). This project was awarded a three-year mobility grant from the Research Council of Norway.

The lecture is part of our 2021-2022 Medieval Seminar Series. Please note that, subject to further measures, it is planned as a hybrid event, with "live" attendance at the Henri Pirenne lecture room at half capacity (25 places) and a Zoom connection to follow from home.
