The 11th Bergen International Postgraduate Symposium in Old Norse Studies 2017
The symposium for postgraduate students of Old Norse is hosted annually by the University of Bergen. Initiated by Professor Else Mundal under the auspices of the Centre for Medieval Studies, it is now organized by the Old Norse section of the Department of Linguistic, Literary and Aesthetic Studies.
Main content
Each year MA and PhD students are invited from Bergen and several UK universities to present their research to their peers, gaining feedback, experience in writing papers and public speaking and getting the opportunity to meet students at the equivalent academic stage.
In 2017, we are pleased to invite student speakers from Bergen, Cambridge, Durham, Nottingham, Oxford, and Reykjavík.
The programme will take place on the 3rd to the 5th of April at the University of Bergen. The location for all three days is Jekteviksbakken 31 (Jus II), Auditorium 145.
All are welcome to listen to the papers and participate in the discussion.
