Biography: 

Dr Jacqueline Glomski is an Honorary Senior Research Fellow at UCL-SELCS, based at CELL.

Dr Glomski works in the areas of Neo-Latin prose writing and history of the book. Her present research is focused on theories of book collecting and library formation in the seventeenth century.

Dr Glomski is currently preparing a book, Neo-Latin Prose Writing on Libraries, for Brill Research Perspectives in Latinity and Classical Reception in the Early Modern Period (for which the series editor is Prof. Gesine Manuwald (UCL-Greek & Latin)). She is also working (with Prof. Erika Rummel, University of Toronto) on an edition and translation of three Neo-Latin essays concerning the Escorial Library, by Juan Bautista Cardona (1587), Claude Clément (1635), and Balthasar Cordier (1648).

Most recently, Dr Glomski was awarded, together with Prof. Gesine Manuwald (UCL Dept of Greek and Latin), an AHRC Research Networking Grant (Jun 2019 – Feb 2022) for Baroque Latinity, a project intended to raise awareness of writing in Latin during the seventeenth century. The resulting book from the project, Baroque Latinity:
Studies in the Neo-Latin Literature of the European Baroque
, has been published with Bloomsbury Academic (https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/baroque-latinity-9781350323445). Moreover, Dr Glomski co-directed, with Dr Robyn Adams, the CELL project Seventeenth-Century Libraries: Problems and Perspectives, for which the initial symposium was held at UCL in June 2019 and the collaborative volume published in June 2023 with Brill (https://brill.com/edcollbook/title/57427).
