<p class="MsoNormal">New information about tonight’s lecture: “<span style="font-size:10.5pt;color:black">By the way, he (Luis Cortest) is arranging to have a couple rare books brought to his presentation as show-and-tell, I think from the history of science
collections. (I'm pretty sure they're facsimiles of some of a couple of the more important Spanish vernacular manuscripts of the the High/Late Middle Ages.)”<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Luis Cortest, Professor of Spanish, Director of the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies at the University of Oklahoma and an expert in medieval Iberian culture, discusses the fascinating history of the one of the most important
medieval pilgrimage routes, Spain's Camino de Santiago, and the importance of the monasteries on the route in the formation of early Spanish vernacular literature. He will talk at length about the role of the important poet Gonzalo de Berceo (circa 1197-circa
1264) in this tradition with special emphasis on Berceo's hagiographic texts.<o:p></o:p></p>
