The Ireland and Carolingian Brittany: Texts and Transmission (IrCaBriTT) project is funded by the Laureate Scheme of the Irish Research Council and led by Dr Jacopo Bisagni. The IrCaBriTT project will explore the intellectual exchanges between Ireland, Brittany and Francia during the Carolingian age (c. AD 750–1000). More specifically, the project will assess the impact of the literary and scholarly heritage of early Christian Ireland on the shaping of textual and cultural identity among the intellectual élite of medieval Brittany, a country situated on the frontier between the Insular world and the European mainland. Position for postdoctoral researcher: The central task associated with this Research Post will consist in the transcription, critical editing and thorough study of the substantial (and hitherto completely neglected) collection of Latin biblical glosses found in Orléans, Bibliothèque Municipale, 182, an early 10th-century manuscript copied in a Frankish scriptorium (probably Fleury-sur-Loire) from a lost Breton exemplar.
