The project’s doctoral student, Meritxell Risco de la Torre, “went to Madrid” last week and presented some of her recent research at the 2nd Congreso de Jóvenes Investigadores JIMENA (CJIJ). Her conference paper was titled ‘El Yo, el cuerpo y las emociones en el Roman de Silence’ (‘Self, body, and emotion in the Roman de Silence’).
The online congress was organised by JIMENA, an organisation of medieval studies students at the Complutense University of Madrid, and it was held from November 30th to December 2nd. The theme this year was ‘El Cuerpo en el Medievo’ (‘The Body in the Middle Ages’). Further details, as well as the conference programme, can be found here.
