Vita
After completing her M.A. and M.Phil at Columbia University School of Arts and Sciences in New York in 1997, Kathryn Rudy pursued her academic career with a Dissertation called “Northern European Visual Responses to Holy Land Pilgrimage, 1453-1550” at the very same school, and obtained her Ph.D. in 2001. Additionally, she earned a Licentiate in Medieval Studies while researching under an Andrew Mellon Fellowship at the Pontifical Institute of the University of Toronto in 2002. Before taking up her position as a lecturer at University of St. Andrews in early 2011, Kathryn Rudy held research, teaching, and curatorial positions in the US, the UK, Canada, the Netherlands, Poland and Belgium. This comprises a Trinity Long Room Hub Visiting Research Fellowship in Dublin, where Rudy researched “The Fagel Missal and Late Medieval Manuscript Production among the Convents of Delft”, as well as a Caro-line Villers Associate Fellowship at the Courtauld Institute of Art in London, where Rudy pioneered in her research “Dirty Books: Quantifying Patterns of Use in Medieval Manuscripts Using a Densitometer”.
