This autumn the Paul Mellon Centre is initiating a programme of research seminars in British art and architectural history. The seminars are intended to provide an opportunity for those who have held Paul Mellon Centre Senior Fellowships to air the new ideas they have been working on during their tenure. They will also provide an opportunity for younger scholars who have either held Paul Mellon Centre postdoctoraI awards or who arc engaged in doctoral research work in British art and architectural history at Yale University to share their ideas with a British audience
