Professional profile
William P. Hyland joined St. Norbert College in August 1999. He teaches Latin and two additional courses entitled Augustine and the Classical World and Norbertine Origins and Christian Culture. In 2005-06, he held the Clarence Heidgen Chair in Catholic Studies at St. Norbert. Beginning in August 2006, he also serves as director of the Center for Norbertine Studies.
Prior to coming to St. Norbert College, William Hyland taught at Cornell University, Benedictine College and Columbus State University. He was a National Mellon Fellow Graduate in the Humanities (1986-91) at Cornell University. As an undergraduate at Emory University, he was a Woodruff Scholar and a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Phi Alpha Theta History Honor Society and Eta Sigma Phi Classics Honor Society.
Professor Hyland’s 1992 doctoral dissertation was entitled John-Jerome of Prague (ca. 1368-1440): A Study in Late Medieval Monastic Intellectual Culture. Cornell University, 1992. His research on this Premonstratensian canon was based on manuscript collections in Arezzo, Florence, Vienna, Budapest, Krakow and Warsaw. The study of his remarkable career sheds light on issues facing the Norbertine Order and the Church in Europe at this time.
Professor Hyland has published numerous articles in his primary field of medieval monasticism, as well as additional pieces on other topics in European and American church history. |
