The Medieval Law project was developed by Maryanne Kowaleski at Fordham University as a way to showcase research by Fordham graduate students and to provide a curated guide to the main primary sources for medieval legal history. It is also part of the digital humanities initiatives at Fordham’s Center for Medieval Studies, which emphasizes a DIY approach to teaching students how to develop digital resources.
