Michelle E. Garceau
(Medieval European History, Europe in the High Middle Ages and Medieval Medicine, c.200-1600 AD.)
Professor Garceau received her
Ph.D. from Princeton University. Professor Garceau's dissertation entitled "God and His Saints in Medieval Catalunya: A Social History" combines religious, social and medical history in an examination of Latin, Catalan, and Spanish manuscript ,miracle lists, devotional texts, wills and chronicles to present the complex reality of medieval life. Her future research plans will focus on two new areas: Zaragoza and Valencia, as sites of important cults, international trade, interreligious contact; and a study of two inquisition trials in Barcelona in 1350-1 in which leading Franciscans and Dominicans accused each other of heresy. Dr. Garceau comes to the college from Princeton University where she taught European Civilization.
