Friday Workshop Series
The CRRS Friday Workshops are a recurring speaker series held approximately once a month during the academic year, and feature both local and visiting scholars presenting their recent work in a seminar-style format. These events are an invigorating way for the medieval and early modern scholarly communities at the University of Toronto to converse, host international scholars in the field, and participate in ongoing research on the Renaissance and Reformation.
