CSMC is happy to announce two winners of the J. P. Gumbert Dissertation Award 2021 for their excellent and innovative contributions to manuscript studies:

•  Hui Sun: “Funerary Lists from Early Chinese Shaft Tombs”, Universität Heidelberg
  Through a combination of codicological and philological data with archaeological and ethno-sociological theories, the author arrives at a new understanding of the usage of funerary lists from early Chinese shaft tombs (5th c. BCE-1st c. CE). 
• Jeremiah Coogan: “Eusebius the Evangelist: Rewriting the Fourfold Gospel in Late Antiquity”, University of Notre Dame, Indiana
  Analysing Eusebius of Caesarea’s fourth-century reconfiguration of the Gospels as a window into broader questions of technology and textuality in ancient and medieval Christianity, the author traces a neglected history of Gospel reading.

The CSMC cordially invites you to the online award ceremony on Wednesday, 9 June 2021, 4.00–5.00 pm CEST.
