CMS is aNorwegian Centre of Excellence (CoE) appointed by theResearch Council of Norway. CMS is devoted to long-term, basic research. CMS’ vision is to enhance our understanding of Europe as a whole, in the Middle Ages as well as today, from a peripheral point of view. The present transformation of Europe calls for new emphases on the continent’s past, not least the period of European origin, the Middle Ages, when the tension between unity and diversity came into being. CMS was officially launched 7 January 2003 and will be in operation until the end of 2012.
About 25 persons will be associated with the Centre. Apart from the core staff, doctoral / post doctoral positions and visiting professors/scholars will be associated with CMS. CMS hosts theNordic Centre for Medieval Studies-NCMS which was launched September 2005. On this website you will find more information about CMS’ research programme and activities.
