Jessica Brantley awarded Frederick Burkhardt Residential Fellowship

April 24, 2013

Congratulations to Jessica Brantley, who has recently been awarded a Frederick Burkhardt Residential Fellowship for Recently Tenured Scholars, sponsored by the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS). These fellowships support long-term, unusually ambitious projects in the humanities and related social sciences, and are meant “to encourage more adventurous, more wide-ranging, and longer-term patterns of research than are current in these disciplines; to link a small number of outstanding scholars and their projects to one of a limited number of residential study centers with an established record of advancing multi-disciplinary scholarship; and to sustain the scholarly momentum of the emerging intellectual leaders in fields of the humanities and related social sciences.”  Professor Brantley will pursue her project, The Medieval Imagetext:  A Literary History of the Book of Hours, at the Huntington Library (San Marino, CA).
