Medievalia

My latest post delineating positive features of the European medieval heritage has elicited dissent amongst careful readers of this blog. In forthcoming pieces I will endeavor to flesh out these observations, which some evidently find counterintuitive.

In the meantime, one may consult a blog that is ancillary to this one: Medmod. While I have not added to this roundup lately, it distills the findings of a graduate course I gave two years ago, with particular attention to the way medieval archetypes shaped modern art.

You may reach this cognate site by going to the Profile of this one, or by consulting Medmod.blogspot.com. To read the lectures in sequence, go to the end first.
