Welcome to the webpages for the English Faculty’s research community in Medieval Studies.  This site contains information about the research interests and activities of medievalists in the English Faculty, as well as information about current seminars and our MPhil.

The Medieval Research Group is a large, diverse, and lively research community. Drawing together those who teach and research the literary cultures of later medieval England from across the collegiate university, our collective expertise ranges over a host of literary-critical and conceptual questions, from the twelfth to the sixteenth century, and across the range of genres of literary writing in England and their European contexts. We meet regularly at the Medieval English Research Seminar, where a mix of visiting speakers and research group-members share emerging research for discussion.

A particular welcome if you’re a visiting scholar! We hope you will get involved with our research community while you’re here, and would very much like to know about your visit, so please get in touch (email pk453[at]cam.ac.uk).
