The essays collected here, informed by approaches from Global Studies and the critical discourse on the concept of a “Global Middle Ages”, explore the many facets of contemporary medievalism: post-colonial responses to the enforced dissemination of Western medievalisms, attempts to retrieve pre-modern cultural traditions that were interrupted by colonialism, the tentative forging of a global ‘medieval’ imaginary from the world’s repository of magical tales and figures, and the deployment across borders of medieval imagery for political purposes.”
