Description
Creation of and staging a public exhibition titled Ciphers, Codes and Notes: Crafting Knowledge in the Medieval and Modern Worlds, McClay Library, May-July 2022. A major collaboration between academic and non-academic partners, this exhibition was organised as part of an AHRC Leadership Fellowship held by Dr Sinéad O’Sullivan (HAPP, QUB), and was designed in conjunction with Dr Ciaran Arthur (postdoctoral research fellow, Leverhulme Trust), Deirdre Wildy and Louisa Costelloe (McClay Library). The exhibition celebrates the unique holdings of Special Collections – the letters and notebooks of Seamus Heaney, CS Lewis and Helen Waddell.
