Studies in medievalism ; 25
Content:
The question of how modernity has influenced medievalism and how medievalism has influenced modernity is the theme of this volume. The opening essays examine the 2001 film 〈I〉Just Visiting〈/I〉's comments on modern anxieties via medievalism; conflations of modernity with both medievalism and the Middle Ages in rewriting sources; the emergence of modernity amid the post-World War I movement The MostNoble Order of Crusaders; António Sardinha's promotion of medievalism as an antidote to modernity; and Mercedes Rubio's medievalism in her feminist commentary on modernity. The eight subsequent articles build on this foundation while discussing remnants of medieval London amid its modern descendant; Michel Houellebecq's critique of medievalism through his 2011 novel 〈I〉La Carte et le territoire〈/I〉; historical authenticity in Michael Morrow's approach to performing medieval music; contemporary concerns in Ford Madox Brown and David Gentleman's murals; medieval Chester in Catherine A.M. Clarkeand Nayan Kulkarni's 〈I〉Hryre〈/I〉 (2012); medieval influences on the formation of and debate about modern moral panics; medievalist considerations in modern repurposings of medieval anchorholds; andmedieval sources for Paddy Molloy's 〈I〉Here Be Dragons〈/I〉 (2013). The articles thus test the essays' methods and conclusions, even as the essays offer fresh perspectives on the articles.〈BR〉〈BR〉 Karl Fugelso is Professor of Art History at Towson University in Baltimore, Maryland.〈BR〉〈BR〉 Contributors: Edward Breen, Katherine A.
