Jacob Currie studied Latin and medieval history at Toronto and Cambridge. He worked at Oxford on the 'Medieval Libraries of Great Britain' project, and on Latin palaeography at the Institut de recherche et d'histoire des textes in Paris. He returned to Oxford in 2020 to work on Gerald of Wales as a post-doctoral researcher and Junior Research Fellow at Jesus College. Since 2022, he has taught medieval Latin at Cambridge, where he is a Fellow of Girton College. Thomas Charles-Edwards has been a member of Corpus Christi College, Oxford from 1962, as undergraduate, graduate student, Junior Research Fellow, Fellow and Tutor in History, and now Emeritus Fellow. From 1967 to 1969, he was a scholar of the School of Celtic Studies in the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies. From 1997 until 2011 he was Jesus Professor of Celtic in the University of Oxford and a Fellow of Jesus College. He has worked mainly on Ireland and Wales in the early medieval period, focusing principally on their laws but also writing more general books on the two countries. Paul Russell is Professor of Celtic in the Department of Anglo Saxon, Norse, and Celtic in the University of Cambridge. His research interests include learned texts in Celtic languages (especially early Irish glossaries), Celtic philology and linguistics, early Welsh orthography, Middle Welsh translation texts, grammatical texts, medieval Welsh law, hagiography, and Latin texts from medieval Wales.
