Because of the impact worldwide of the coronavirus (COVID-19), the 2020 International Summer Programmes have been replaced by the Virtual Summer Festival of Learning

This course is part of the Medieval Studies Summer Programme 2020.

We will explore the medieval universe. Far from the stereotype of a 'dark age', scholars in monasteries and universities studied both the earth and heavens, drawing on distant cultures and making scientific knowledge a key part of Christian faith. We will examine their instruments and writings, to understand how the medieval cosmos worked, and why it mattered.
