Please join us for the our monthly Renaissance Goo online work-in-progress groups, held online on Friday lunchtimes.  Topics will be announced on this blog and via our @renaissancegoo Twitter account as well as emailed to our mailing list.  We welcome proposals for topics from researchers in the field.

This interdisciplinary group will cover topics about the beautification or modification of the face, hair and body in the premodern world; issues relating to remaking historic recipes; and interdisciplinary historiographical questions relating to humanities scholars and scientists working together.

 

If you have a topic that you’d like to share at the meeting, or if you’d like to sign up to our mailing list, and receive Zoom links for each meeting, please email renaissancegooproject@gmail.com
