Senior Lecturers John Sabapathy and Antonio Sennis were pleased to learn in January that their consortium, led by Dr Catherine Keen of SELCS, has been successful in its application to UCL's Rome Regional Partnership fund. There was a good deal of competition for this funding, which has been awarded to ten groups from across UCL and comes as part of a wider move within the university to develop new and existing links with specific regions across the EU.
The project with which John and Antonio are involved, 'Imagining Rome in Medieval and Renaissance Europe', will hold a workshop with medieval and early modern scholars from across UCL and a range of Roman institutions.
