Emilela Thomas-Adams, a PhD candidate in the department, presented a paper entitled “’Er want mich in waz er gehaben moht’: Medieval Community and Therapeutic Reuse” at the 42nd Annual Mary L. Cornille (GRS '87) Boston University Graduate Symposium on the History of Art & Architecture. 

This year’s theme, “Material Ecologies: Connecting Care, Nature, and Identity,” invited papers that explored materiality and feminist critique as lenses for environmental inquiry in art history. The symposium was held jointly at Boston University and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. 

This trip was supported by the College of Arts and Sciences’ Arts and Humanities Graduate Research Small Grants Program.
