CMTC Podcast Interviews

De: Gabriele Rota
  • Resumen

  • This is not a podcast about manuscripts. Join our host Gabriele Rota (https://www.queens.ox.ac.uk/people/dr-gabriele-rota) – Outreach Officer at the Centre for Manuscript and Text Cultures (CMTC) (https://www.queens.ox.ac.uk/centre-manuscript-and-text-cultures) , The Queen's College (https://www.queens.ox.ac.uk/) (University of Oxford)–in a series of conversations with some of the brightest researchers in the humanities working on premodern cultures. Each interview will focus on the interviewee's character and approach to their discipline, their teaching philosophy and research, their plans for the future, and their advice to younger and soon-to-become colleagues. The atmosphere and tone will be friendly and relaxed–Gabriele's "default settings"–and the content wholly accessible to anyone, from casual and non-specialist listerners (for whom this podcast is chiefly intended) to fellow academics.
