prospective workshop leaders. Research workshops address intellectual questions
in global premodern studies and vary greatly in their topics of inquiry and
workshop activies. Consortium research workshops model collaboration across
disciplines, chronologies, and geographies and have become the core of the
consortium in terms of scope and level of participation. The maximum level of
funding is $5,000 per workshop, but most do not require this level of support. Applications
for the 2018 – 2019 academic year are due Friday, April 13. For more
