Medieval and Renaissance Studies
An examination of the history, religion, art, and literature of the
medieval and Renaissance period intended to foster a sympathetic understanding
of an age very different from our own, as well as a better sense of
the roots of the modem era. The minor requires 20 credits of course
work. The minor coordinator is Professor
Glenn Holland, and the minor is administered by a committee whose
membership includes Professors Amelia Carr, Holland, and Eric Palmer.
