About MARGOT

Lire en Français


MARGOT is a long-term research project devoted to publishing fully searchable editions of either generally inaccessible texts from the French Middle Ages and the Early Modern period (the Ancien Régime) or of texts in connection with a specific project from the same time period. It is our objective to create a peer-reviewed publishing forum of projects which fall in either of these two categories. We understand “text” in its broadest semiotic sense encompassing not only written material but iconography as well.

The success of this endeavour relies on collaborative efforts both at the University of Waterloo, where the website is housed, and beyond. We invite colleagues and graduate students who are interested in MARGOT to contact us in order to discuss a potential contribution, be it to one of the existing projects, or a proposal for a new one.
