The Middle Ages and Medievalism have been used and abused throughout history–and this continues. This narrative deserves a reassessment. But, what is Medieval? This is the central question that unifies the contributions in this volume. ‘Medievalism’, or the study of the Middle Ages in its broadest sense, refers to the perception, conceptualisation and movement towards the era post the fifteenth century. Its study is therefore not about the period otherwise referred to as the ‘Middle Ages’, but rather the myriad ways it has since been conceived.
