The Yale Medieval Lunch Series is an interdisciplinary colloquium that meets regularly throughout the academic year. It is the program’s primary forum for exchanging ideas, sharing research findings, and presenting work-in-progress within Yale’s broad and diverse Medieval Studies community.
The colloquium draws on the skills and expertise of departmental faculty members, graduate students, research scholars, postdoctoral fellows, librarians, curators, and occasional visitors from outside Yale. In the past few years, presentations have included new research from the fields of English; linguistics; history of art; religious studies; history; Judaic studies; numismatics; legal studies; economic history; and manuscript studies; textual criticism; and Italian, Spanish, French, Slavic and Near Eastern languages.
