Postdoc Position: Social Norms in Medieval Canon Law

5. November 2024

Employer: Faculty of Arts, Radboud University Nijmegen (Netherlands)

Deadline for Applications: 10 November 2024

The medieval body of texts known as 'canon law' not only regulates strictly religious or ecclesiastical issues but also communicates social and moral ideas about the inner life of society. With a combination of traditional philological study and advanced digital humanities methods, the SOLEMNE project aims to chart how such ideas are transmitted, appropriated, altered, and promoted in canonical collections. As a postdoctoral researcher, you will contribute to this project by researching the spread of thoughts and ideas on social norms through clusters of authoritative statements within these collections.
