"Medieval history is present in many forms in our world. Monuments from the Middle
Ages or inspired by them are a familiar feature of landscapes across Europe and beyond;
the period between the end of the Roman Empire in Western Europe and the Reformation
and European expansion is an essential part of our imagination, be it conveyed through
literature, the arts, science fiction or even video games; it is also commonly invoked
in political debates. Specialists in the field have played a major role in shaping
modern perceptions of the era. But little is known about the factors that have influenced
them and their work. The essays in this volume provide original insights into the
fabric and dissemination of medieval history as a scholarly discipline from the late
eighteenth century onwards. The case-studies range from the creation of specific images
of the Middle Ages to the ways in which medievalists have dealt with European identity,
contributed to making and deconstructing myths and, more specifically, addressed questions
relating to land and frontiers as well as to religion."
