The event is a 2-day interdisciplinary conference on the history of science in medieval Ireland.

Discussions of the mathematical content of the great artistic and literary achievements of the period will be included. Papers will also explore the manner in which a truly interdisciplinary approach, inspired by this model, may be applied to education today.
