Scholars Abroad
Distinguished Professor Michael Livingston spent the summer abroad. After a week studying Cathar castles in southern France, he traveled to the British Isles to film three documentaries. The first, on William Wallace, will air on History Hit in September.
Livingston’s novel Stormborn, the final installment of his epic fantasy Seaborn series, was released in the U.K. on July 3 and will be available in the U.S. on September 23. His nonfiction work The Two Hundred Years War releases in the U.K. on October 9, followed by the U.S. release—Bloody Crowns—on October 21. His first novel is being reissued with a new cover and title: The Ark and the Empire. Additionally, Agincourt: Battle of the Scarred King, a book that was short-listed for the Historical Writers’ Association’s Non-Fiction Crown Award, will be released in paperback in the U.S. on September 11.
The School of Humanities and Social Sciences also awarded study abroad scholarships to William Dow, Elisa Texaj-Fuentes, Savannah Mouritsen, Jesselyn Ospina, Alexis Ray, Tyler Chudzik, Samantha Grantham and Wyatt Ring. These scholarships, totaling $15,000, supported summer travel to Ireland, France, Greece, Spain, and Estonia.
