Conference Anglo-Dutch Relations (6-8 January 2022, Oxford) 23 november 2021
Contacts between English and Dutch speakers had a profound impact on the literary landscape and book culture of England and the Low Countries. This conference crosses conventional chronological, linguistic, geographical and disciplinary boundaries to explore the cultural history of relations between English and Dutch speakers, from the Norman Conquest through to the Reformation. Bringing together literary scholars and historians, it aims to join up evidence of literary exchange with new insights into the experiences of migration, conflict, political alliances, and trade that made this literary exchange possible. The conference will reinvigorate traditional approaches to literary influence by contextualising it in the historical conditions that brought speakers of Dutch and English into contact with each other and by taking into account the range of languages (Dutch, English, French, and Latin) in which their communications and literary production in manuscript and early print took shape over this period. Online: free attendance.

Workshop "The Cognitive Turn in History" (Groningen) 30 oktober 2021
On 4 and 5 November 2021 an ICOG-workshop will be held on the cognitive turn in history. It is possible to attend this workshop online. The participants of the workshop are cultural and intellectual historians of the pre-modern periods and/or of the historiography of academia from a long-term perspective, e.g. the influence of 19th and early 20th century on disciplinary thinking. The main idea is to evaluate or apply the cognitive methodologies and to understand how they developed in the history of education and research, in order to explore psychic and mental processes, phenomenological experience, and emotional states of individuals from the pre-modern past, as well as the way we as moderns relate to these historical interpretations. Contact details: Prof. Catrien Santing (c.g.santing@rug.nl) and Dr. Babette Hellemans (b.s.hellemans@rug.nl).
