Discussion Group: The Anglo-Saxon Studies Colloquium

Based in Columbia, New York University, Princeton, and Rutgers, the Colloquium seeks to expand the resources available to Anglo-Saxonists from these universities and other institutions in the area, and also to create a welcoming intellectual community for anyone who is interested in Anglo-Saxon studies.
