Overview
The Collaborative Program in Editing Medieval Texts offers intensive training in the editing of Latin and vernacular manuscripts, including music. Training in all areas is based on a sound knowledge of Latin and on the principles of editing Latin manuscripts. Students in the Program complete a series of courses which deal with the techniques of reading, transcribing, and editing manuscripts, and then complete an editorial project, which can be a paper for a course in any of the collaborating departments, an independent publishable project, or the student's dissertation.
