Feedback on the 7th summer course:

"Historical overview of writing forms from late antiquity to modern times and concrete 'tools' for working with and on   
the same; balanced ratio of active participation and frontal teaching; very high commitment and professional expertise of all lecturers; excellent organization; interesting selection of participants from all subjects, semesters and countries and creation of a collaborative atmosphere."  

 

"The course is relevant not only to students of Middle Latin, but to the humanities as a whole, in the fields of literature, culture, and linguistics, as well as history, art history, and archaeology. That courses on paleography are not offered at many universities is to be regretted. All the more, the summer course represents a valuable professional and didactic exception, which should definitely be maintained and promoted."
