Premodern Global Studies Minor

News

 

This year's Premodern Global Studies Celebration focused on technology, gaming, AI and the Premodern World. We were delighted to host Dr. Bihter Esener of Northwestern University, who delivered our keynote address, "From Parchments to Pixels: Exploring and Playing the Premodern World in the Ludic Age," during our March 12, 2025 event. Earlier in the day we also held our annual roundtable, featuring presentations by Lee Patterson (EIU, History), B. J. Thomas (University Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Anthropology), Gabe Grant (EIU, School of Technology), Tanner Bivens (EIU, Political Science), and Allison Nichols (EIU, PMGS minor)
