This week Lucie Valentinová resumed her study of Minoan iconography at the INSTAP Study Center for East Crete. With funding from the European Erasmus Program, Lucie has visited our library twice a year since 2018 while working on her Ph.D. in the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies of Charles University in Prague.  In September she completed her thesis (The Shield of Achilleus: Minoan Representational Conventions in Early Greek Poetry and Thought) and is now teaching at the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies at the University of Pardubice. We hope Lucie can serve as an example for other students to consider using the collections in our library and archives for their research on Cretan and Aegean topics.
