Studies in Medieval and Renaissance Culture

Description

Since its founding in 1943, Medievalia et Humanistica has won worldwide recognition as the first scholarly publication in America to devote itself entirely to medieval and Renaissance studies. Since 1970, a new series, sponsored by the Modern Language Association of America and edited by an international board of distinguished scholars and critics, has published interdisciplinary articles. In yearly hardcover volumes, the new series publishes significant scholarship, criticism, and reviews treating all facets of medieval and Renaissance culture: history, art, literature, music, science, law, economics, and philosophy.

Volume 32-Discussion, Dialogue, and Development-in the new series contains nine original, refereed articles that largely focus on literary topics, in addition to art, history, and music. Additionally, several review essays and book notices are included, surveying important recent scholarship within the humanities.
