Description
This grant supports interdisciplinary projects—such as conferences, workshops, and seminars—focused on the Italian Renaissance. Administered by Villa I Tatti, The Harvard University Center for Italian Renaissance Studies, the program is designed to foster scholarly activity in regions or educational centers that have been underrepresented at I Tatti or that rarely host Italian Renaissance events. The grant particularly encourages former I Tatti appointees to expand the reach of Renaissance studies by organizing collaborative events that promote intellectual exchange in new academic communities.
