GEMS Presents: Young Researcher’s Day

GEMS is hosting a work-in-progress session for MA students working on early modern (broadly defined) literature and cultural history. We want to create a low threshold and open setting for students to present their work and get feedback on it.

In this session, students will give a poster presentation (in English) on their current research. The presentation aims to help students fine-tune their research and is a great opportunity to get feedback from your peers in the field of early modern cultural history and literature. The presentation can be about a specific chapter or methodology in your research, or an outline of your thesis. We don’t expect your research to be in a finalized stage, feel free to come with drafts and invite your peers to think along with you.

The seminar will take place on Monday 22 April 2024. We aim for seven-minute presentations with ample time for questions. GEMS will finance the print costs for the posters. Refreshments (food and drinks) will be provided.
