Brepols organizes the ReIReS Course “Digital Resources for Patristic, Medieval and Religious Studies”, which will be held in Turnhout from December 9^th to 11^th, following immediately upon, and in close partnership with the ReIReS Course organized at KU Leuven.
The course organized by Brepols focuses on presenting online research tools for facilitating Patristic and Medieval Studies and the History of Religion. We especially – but not exclusively – welcome PhD students and postdocs in the fields of history, theology, and philology.
The course will allow participants to gain first-hand experience of state-of-the-art online bibliographies, encyclopedias, dictionaries and full-text databases. It also aims to deepen existing knowledge of text analysis through digital tools. Finally, their presence at an international academic publishing house will allow participants to gain insight in (Latin text) publishing initiatives, both in print and online.

This course was orginally scheduled to take place on April 1-3, 2020 but has been postponed until 9-11 December 2020 due to the Corona virus outbreak.
