Outreach
The CSR organises special study days – and, subject to demand, longer courses. The last gathering was in December 2023, where attendees spent the day immersing themselves in the topic, 'East Meets West: Medieval and Renaissance Encounters', and our next event is on Friday 20th September on the topic of 'Propaganda', details HERE.
Details of more recent past events can be found HERE.
