Dr Alice Taylor-Griffiths who completed her PhD and worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department, has been awarded a two-year Research Fellowship from the Irish Research Council, commencing this month. She will be based at Trinity College Dublin, working with Dr Jürgen Uhlich. Her research will explore the relationship between the glossography of the psalms and native verse texts in Ireland to understand how the medieval Irish viewed their own texts alongside the authoritative status of the psalms. The title of the project is ‘Of Saints and Scribes: Psalms, Sanctity, and Schooling in Medieval Ireland’. Congratulations!
