This event will bring together a range of experts in the Digital Humanities to discuss the possibilities of using digital tools for historical research. Registration below.

Staff and students are cordiallly invited to a three-paper workshop on the application of digital tools for the analysis of historical English materials. The organiser is grateful to the Anders Jahre Fond for financial support.

When I was working with Middle English topics as an undergraduate in Helsinki, I learned that there were two main reference works for finding Middle English works in the department library. These were The Index of Middle English Prose (IMEP) and the Index of Middle English Verse (IMEV). Both could be found in a section entitled Britannica at the department library. Both were consulted fairly regularly by a nerdy student, who had progressed from reading too much Tolkien to developing an interest in the medieval parts of the curriculum. Given the similarity of the names of these series, I naturally assumed they were sister publications. It was only after starting to work for IMEP that I realised there are substantial differences between the two.

Welcome! This is the first blog of the EU-funded Marie Skłodowska Curie project Index of Middle English Prose: Digital Cotton Catalogue Project (IMEP DCCP).
