The IMC provides an interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of all aspects of Medieval Studies. Proposals on any topic related to the Middle Ages are welcome, while every year the IMC also chooses a special thematic focus. In 2021 this was ‘Climates’.

Climates are engendered by powerful interactions of heavens, oceans, and earth, and are themselves potent forces in complicated relationships with water, landscapes, patterns of weather, and human and non-human life. They affect, and are affected by, other climates – including of thought, opinion, feeling, belief, politics, society, and economics. Medievalists study populations across the globe that understood this interconnectedness in multiple ways, invested causal and explanatory power in observable phenomena, and lived in communities that were both vulnerable and responsive to shifting environmental conditions. Climates – in the many senses of the word – are now among the most pressing issues of our times. Expertise on the medieval period is becoming increasingly important to scientific and public conversations, while intensifying global instability threatens both the future study of a period long synonymous with irrelevancy, and the preservation of its material remains.

‘Climates’ can be explored on many levels, from the planetary to the intimately local, offering alternative routes to explore ideas of centres and peripheries, agency and determinism, connectivities, interdependencies and comparisons, as well as what constitutes the ‘global’ in this period. It was within dynamic environments and ecosystems that humans lived, moved, organised themselves, developed cosmologies, philosophies, and theologies, created material objects, literatures, and other records, extracted and exchanged the resources of different regions, competed for land and power, and faced disaster, displacement, and violence.

Themes to be addressed may include, but are not limited to:

• Medieval concepts of ‘climes’ and ‘climate’
• Cosmologies, world views, natural or supernatural causation
• Medieval enquiry into weather, seasons, monsoon patterns
• Astronomical and astrological observations and predictions
• Agriculture, pastoralism, modification of landscapes, exploitation of resources, inequality, colonialism
• Environmental determinism, medieval histories of modern inequalities
• Societal organisation, hierarchy, law-making, governance
• Applying paradigms of adaption, resilience, and collapse
• Ecosystems, entanglements, human and non-human agency
• ‘Climates’ of opinion, thought, feeling
• Disease, pathogens, and microbes
• Relationships between climate change and human history
• Ecocriticism, critical race theory, indigenous knowledge, ecofeminism, queer ecology
• Weather and weathering
• Interdisciplinarity and integration of historical climate and environmental data
• ‘Provincialising Europe’: Writing history on the ‘planetary’ or biospheric scale
• ’Climates’ and interregional connectivities, interdependencies and disconnections
• Fluctuations in migration, mobility, trade, exchange, and transmission
• Seas, oceans, rivers, monsoon, floods as dynamic spaces
• Medievalists, politics, climate justice, pedagogy, and activism
• Preservation of material remains amid growing climate and societal instability

The Special Thematic Strand ‘Climates‘ was co-ordinated by Amanda Power (Faculty of History / St Catherine’s College, University of Oxford).

Special Thematic Strand: ‘Materialities’, 1 - 4 July 2019

Conference Programme

• Browse by participants

The IMC provides an interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of all aspects of Medieval Studies. Proposals on any topic related to the Middle Ages are welcome, while every year the IMC also chooses a special thematic focus. In 2019 this is 'Materialities'.

Recent attention to objects, artefacts, matter, and material culture has reshaped scholarship in many fields. This strand seeks to address the impact of this new interest in things, theories, and methods as they relate to an expansive understanding of ‘materiality’. The study of materiality brings together a host of scholarly and theoretical concerns and puts them into dialogue to understand how conceptions of matter, and matter itself, shaped the creation of the material world, regimes of labour and supply, connectivity, entanglements, trade networks, movements of things and people, concepts of agency and network theory, and constructed notions of the sublime, of replication, and of ‘reality’, as an abstract concept and category during the Middle Ages.

This strand seeks to bring into conversation recent work on materialities by art historians, archaeologists, paleographers, historians, economists, musicologists, liturgists, philosophers, philologists, and scholars of literature, critical theory, and religious studies, among other fields. Material objects and practices served as markers of cultural difference, but could also - simultaneously - become part of a shared culture of consumption, proximity suggesting gender and class affinities. Material dynamics were embedded in the making of objects, the trade in raw materials, and the roles of men and women in the fabrication of things spanning the luxurious to the mundane. Materialities shaped cultures of consumption, created regimes of circulation, and informed networks that defined both subjects and objects. Materialities encompass interactions between peoples both near and far and offer an analytical framework that suggests the unity of the medieval world across religious, ethnic, and spatial distances and differences.

Themes to be addressed may include, but are not limited to:

• Material culture and consumption
• Materiality and the archaeological record
• Agency of people and things
• Medieval ‘thing’ theory
• Material connections: regimes of circulation
• Materialism and the Middle Ages
• Labour and production of things
• The social life of things
• Fabrication: production of specific objects
• Replication and reproduction
• Materiality of coins, money, and circulation
• Manuscripts: material and making
• Material textual and writing cultures
• Soundscape: material and musical culture
• Light and form
• Representing the material
• Body and spirit: spirituality and the material
• Space and materialities
• Materials: mundane (e.g. wood, water, dust) and luxurious (e.g. gold, silver, gems)
• Intimacies of things
• Abundance and/or scarcity
• Imagined materials
• Material landscapes: urban, suburban, rural
• Loans, debts, credit
• Materialities of power/empire
• Race and subjectivity
• Transformations: recycling, reuse, destruction
• Material religions: beliefs and practices
• Materials and memory
• Materialities and/of conflict
• Gendered materialities
• Digital/virtual/material archives
• Conservation and preservation
• Text and/as object

The Special Thematic Strand 'Materialities' will be co-ordinated by Anne E. Lester (Department of History, Johns Hopkins University).

Call for Papers/Sessions - International Medieval Congress 2018

The IMC provides an interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of all aspects of Medieval Studies. Paper and session proposals on any topic related to the Middle Ages are welcome, while every year the IMC also chooses a special thematic focus. In 2018 - the year of the 25th IMC - this is ‘Memory’.

There are many kinds of memory - personal and social, natural and artificial, political and cultural. Along the lines of this general taxonomy, memory operates in many diverse modes: as a mechanism, process, instrument, and cognitive framework relating to, and concerning recreations of, the past - the social past, the institutional past as well as the past of an individual. Central in the process of storing, retrieving, and (re)constructing the past, memory is by no means a stable entity; it is always undergoing transformation.

In recent decades, memory has become a very fashionable research topic. In Medieval Studies, the concept of memory has been studied as permeating history, literature, language, religion, science, philosophy, and other fields. In addition to treating the processes of storing and retrieving information, the study of memory now naturally also encompasses personal and communal identity and self-fashioning, conceptualization of the world, perception of time and space, intellectual cognition and emotional reactions, established patterns and creativity, continuity and discontinuity, memorization and forgetting - to name but a few conceptual domains under scrutiny. This, however, also means that the study of memory has gradually become very complex and even somewhat elusive. In this sense, this special thematic strand offers a unique opportunity for a fresh and vigorous treatment of the field of memory in its astonishing breadth and variety.

The IMC welcomes proposals in all areas of memory. Themes to be addressed may include, but are not limited to:

• Personal memory, self-fashioning, and identity
• Social, political, and religious memory
• The art of memory, mnemonics
• Memory: orality and literacy
• Knowledge and education - and its dissemination
• Metaphors for memory
• The media, mechanisms, and methods of memory - visual, verbal, and material memory
• Memory and beauty: aesthetic relevance and impact of memorization and remembering
• Objects of memory
• Lieux de memoire - communities and identity
• Construction and reconstruction of the past
• Memory: order and disorder
• Memory: sense and sensibility
• Commemoration and re-enactment
• Memory and immortality
• The arcane and daily life
• Memory and virtue
• Performance/drama/music - memory and playfulness
• Memory: habit and improvisation
• Forgetting and oblivion: natural processes vs. damnatio memoriae
• Forbidden memory
• Manipulative memory
• Categorization in language (analogy vs. anomaly, etc.)
• Etymologizing (including folk etymology)
• Formulas and catalogues
• Remembering the Middle Ages

The Special Thematic Strand 'Memory' is co-ordinated by will Lucie Doležalová (Institute of Greek & Latin Studies, Univerzita Karlova, Praha) and Jan Cermák (Department of English, Univerzita Karlova, Praha).

Title: The Theatre As Object and Subject in Jean Fouquet's Martyrdom of St. Apollonia: An Interdisciplinary Approach
Organiser: Gordon Kipling English Department, University of California, Los Angeles
Moderator: Peter Meredith School of English, University of Leeds
Purpose: This session will explore, with slide illustration, Jean Fouquet's use of theatre as a setting for his depiction of the martyrdom of a saint. The apparent realism of the theatre in Fouquet's image encourages us to regard it as an object, a visual record of performance, but it is an imaginative reconstruction of two literary texts. How does he use theatre as subject and what theatrical objects are dedicated by their functions as a homiletic venue?

Session: 917
Title: History of Medieval Daily Life: The Variety of Approaches - A Round Table Discussion
Organiser: Gerhard Jaritz Institut für Realienkunde, Krems/ Central European University, Budapest
Moderator: Gerhard Jaritz
Purpose: The history of medieval everyday life is a field of research dependent on interdisciplinary approaches. Written and pictorial sources as well as archaeological evidence play important roles for any analysis. The different contexts of information and their interpretation determine our (re)construction of daily life decisively. The aim of the round table is to discuss various methods and approaches. It should show that 'History of Daily Life' has to be seen as a very necessary field of Medieval Studies that also offers relevant methods and results for many other historical disciplines.

Session: 923
Title: Unity and Diversification in the North Sea-Baltic Region: Towards a Reappraisal of Hanse? - A Round Table Discussion
Organiser: Dick E.H. de Boer Department of Medieval History, Rijksuniversiteit Groningen
Moderator: Dick E.H. de Boer
Purpose: Relations between the regions of North Sea and Baltic since the 12th century are largely dominated - in the historians view - by the existence and role of Hanse. Recent historiography and plans for new research seem to lay a new emphasis on the diverging elements within the system, on the role of `Hansoids' next to `Hanseates', and on cultural diversity next to the many binding and uniting elements. Not to forget the many activities out of the Hanseatic control or inspiration. The round table aims to start a discussion on this theme, to prepare a full strand of sessions in 1998.

Sponsor: Studies in Medievalism
Organiser: Leslie Workman, Studies in Medievalism, Holland, Michigan
Moderator: Leslie Workman
Purpose: 'Medievalism is the continuing process of creating the Middle Ages', and like most postmodern scholarship emphasises process over product.

The panel will demolish both these misconceptions and discuss deferring views of the true nature of medievalism. Amongst the contributors of this session will be T. A. Shippey (Saint Louis University, Missouri), David D. Metzger (Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia), and John Simons (Edge Hill University College, Ormskirk).

Session: 902
Title: THE RE-ESTABLISHMENT OF REGULAR LIFE IN THE ENGLISH NORTH - A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION
Organiser: Derek Baker, Department of History, University of North Texas, Denton
Moderator: Derek Baker
Purpose: It is a truism to declare that the re-establishment of regular life in the post-conquest English North depended upon the co-operative and sometimes competitive, endeavours of individuals and institutions with various and diverse interests. It is seldom, however, that consideration of these developments goes beyond discussions of the personalities involved - in this context, Thurstan, St. Calais, Flambard, Espec, Aumale et al. This session, while not ignoring personal qualities and motives, will focus on the 'offices' held - archbishop, bishop, earl, patron, justiciar, abbot etc. - and the auctoritas associated with, or implicit in, them, at a time when auctoritatesthemselves were in process of development and definition. Amongst the participants of this round table discussion will be Bernard Meehan, David Rollason, Paul Dalton, and Janet Burton.

Title: MEDIEVAL LITERACY: A MOMENT FOR REAPPRAISAL? - A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION
Sponsor: Pionierproject Verschriftelijking, Universiteit Utrecht
Organiser: Marco Mostert, Pionierproject Verschriftelijking, Universiteit Utrecht
Moderator: Marco Mostert
Purpose: Since the 1960s research on medieval literacy has benefitted from attention from historians, historians of literature, historians of art, palaeographers, diplomatists and others. This interest has resulted in an abundant literature on the subject. The time seems to have come to consider whether the results of all these efforts have been worthwhile. Is the image of literacy as a topic still as bright as it was once thought to be? Or should we move beyond the study of literacy, and if so, in which direction?

Organiser: Barbara Rosenwein, Department of History, Loyola University, Chicago, Illinois
Moderator: Barbara Rosenwein
Purpose: The purpose of this round table discussion is to assess the general thrust and significance of the papers in sessions Cluny, I-V.

Participants in the discussion will include: Giancarlo Andenna, Hartmut Atsma, Constance H. Berman, Constance Bouchard, Isabelle Cochelin, Sarah Connolly, Giles Constable, H. E. J. Cowdrey, Florent Cygler, Franz Felten, Brent Hardy, Patrick Henriet, Maria Hillebrandt, Daniel-Odon Hurel, Dominique Iogna-Prat, Didier Méhu, Gert Melville, Franz Neiske, Barbara H.

Are we pursuing the best strategy for preservation? What should we do to save the hamlet and farmstead settlements? What should our policy be towards still inhabited settlements which occupy known medieval sites? Participants of this round table will include Robin Daniels, Mark Gardiner, David Stocker (English Heritage, London) and Stuart Wrathmell.
