About this Event
Since human beings first looked up at the heavens, the stars and other celestial bodies have played a crucial role in how people have made sense of the cosmos, their societies and the bodies they inhabit.
On April 10-11, the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies will host its biennial celebration of Popular Culture and the Deep Past (PCDP) at the Ohio State University on the topic of “Star Gazing: Astrology and Astronomy in the Medieval and Renaissance Imagination.”
As in past years, this event will feature a scholarly conference with papers, round tables and keynote lectures by prominent scholars on the Friday of the event, followed by a Renaissance-faire-like carnival featuring exhibits, gaming, contests, live demonstrations and activities of all kinds the next day.
Friday: At the OSU Faculty Club, 181 Oval Dr S, Columbus, OH 43210
Saturday: At Metro High School, 420 E 19th Ave, Columbus, OH 43201
