Court Cultures of the Middle Ages and Renaissance

ISSN: 2296-4118

Court Cultures of the Middle Ages and Renaissance is a peer-reviewed series focused on the inter- and multi-disciplinary cultural output of medieval and Renaissance court culture on an international scale. The series invites proposals for single- and multi-authored monographs, edited collections and editions of early works relating to the court. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit proposals which highlight the central importance of the court to medieval and Renaissance culture, including projects that explore the life and/or works of writers, artists, historiographers, soldiers, composers, diplomats and courtiers, in the East as well as the West. Other areas of particular interest are courtly ritual (e.g. chivalric code, ceremonies, spectacle) and literary and artistic representations of the court. The series will also explore the role of the court in shaping national, religious and political identities, as well as its function as an interface between different cultures. The series is affiliated with the Trinity Centre for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, Trinity College Dublin. Each proposal is vetted by the Editorial Board and Chief Editor and undergoes a comprehensive peer-review process.

Mittelalter und Renaissance in der Romania

Mit den Akten der Tagung Aktualität des Mittelalters und der Renaissance in der Romanistik erscheint der erste Band der Schriftenreihe Mittelalter und Renaissance in der Romania (MIRA), die sich zum Ziel setzt, die Ergebnisse der interdisziplinären Zusammenarbeit im Rahmen des gleichnamigen wissenschaftlichen Netzwerkes zu den Epochen Mittelalter und Renaissance in den romanischsprachigen Ländern zu veröffentlichen. Daneben sollen auch unabhängige Untersuchungen zu dieser Thematik in die Reihe aufgenommen werden, um so möglichst umfassend jenen Leserkreis zu erreichen, der sich für diesen gleichermaßen zeitlich-historisch wie sprachlich-kulturell definierten Gegenstandsbereich interessiert. Neben sprach- und literaturwissenschaftlichen Studien werden kulturwissenschaftlich sowie historisch ausgerichtete Untersuchungen Schwerpunkte der Schriftenreihe bilden, die aber auch weitere Disziplinen wie etwa die Kunstgeschichte, die Philosophie, die historischen Sozialwissenschaften oder die Theologie mit einbeziehen möchte. Die Gründung der Schriftenreihe ist mit der Hoffnung verbunden, zu einer Fokussierung der verschiedensten Forschungsarbeiten auf dem skizzierten Gebiet beizutragen, indem diese über die bestehenden Fachgrenzen hinaus ein Publikationsforum finden, um so den Kontakt von Forschern unterschiedlicher Bereiche bis hin zu einer transdisziplinären Zusammenarbeit anzuregen. Aus unserer Begeisterung für die Thematik und dem Bestreben heraus, diesen historischen Untersuchungsbereich nachhaltig zu stärken, resultiert der Wunsch, dass sich unsere Schriftenreihe durch Lebendigkeit auszeichnen möge. Diese Lebendigkeit wird getragen von der aktiven Beteiligung aller zum Mittelalter und der Renaissance arbeitenden Wissenschaftler und Wissenschaftlerinnen, insbesondere natürlich von ihrer Bereitschaft, die verschiedenen Studien der MIRA-Reihe zur Kenntnis zu nehmen und die Reihe auch selbst als Publikationsforum zu nutzen. Auf diesem Weg hoffen wir, zu einer lebhaften und innovativen Forschung beizutragen, der wir uns alle verpflichtet fühlen.
