CALL FOR PAPERS
Presentation
Esguardant e pensant qual era aquest món
Medieval thought, traditionally related to major figures and to the works produced by an intellectual elite, provides, however, a great richness and variety when we broaden our sight to encompass the ensemble of those who formed medieval society. With the introductory phrase of this text, from the preface of the Llibre dels Fets by Jaume I, we aim to open the door to the multiple points of view and reflections provided by graduate researchers within a wide range of aspects related to knowledge and its language, the arts, the ways of learning, the transmission of proficiency, the objects and the spaces in which the thoughts are reflected in the context of medieval age.
With a distinctly interdisciplinary diffusion intention, the congress aims to announce innovative researches on multiple and corresponding fields, such as History, Philosophy, History of Art or Philology among others. Our main objective with this call, with which we encourage you to participate, is to give access to new spaces of creation and network transmission of knowledge, thus confronting the specialization and compartmentalization of expertises usually attributed to the academic world. The accepted papers will define the final sections in which the congress will be divided.
