serieseditors’ PrefaCe

Religion and Culture in the Middle Ages aims to eXplore the interface between medi-eVal religion and culture, with as broad an understanding of those terms as possible. It puts to the forefront studies which engage with works that signiïcantly contributed to the shaping of medieVal culture. HoweVer, it also giVes attention to studies dealing with works that reect and highlight aspects of medieVal culture that haVe been neglected in the past by scholars of the medieVal disciplines. For eXample, deVotional works and the practice they infer illuminate our understanding of the medieVal subject and its culture in remarkable ways, while studies of the material space designed and inhabited by medieVal subjects yield new eVidence on the period and the people who shaped it and liVed in it. In the larger ïeld of religion and culture, we also want to eXplore further the roles played by women as authors, readers and owners of books, thereby deïning them more precisely as actors in the cultural ïeld. The series as a whole inVestigates the European Middle Ages, fromc.500 toc.1500. Our aim is to eXplore medieVal religion and culture with the tools belonging to such disciplines as, among others, art history, philosophy, theology, history, musicology, the history of medicine, and literature. In particular, we would like to promote interdisciplinary studies, as we belieVe strongly that our modern understanding of the term applies fascinatingly well to a cultural period marked by a less tight conïnement and categorization of its disciplines than the modern period. HoweVer, our only criterion is academic eXcellence, with the belief that the use of a large diVersity of critical tools and theoretical approaches enables a deeper under-standing of medieVal culture. We want the series to reect this diVersity, as we belieVe that, as a collection of outstanding contributions, it offers a more subtle representation of a period that is marked by paradoXes and contradictions and which necessarily reects diVersity and difference, howeVer difïcult it may sometimes haVe proVed for medieVal culture to accept these notions.
