Meeting in the Middle Ages

Meeting in the Middle Ages

What do medievalists do, and how do they do it? Meeting in the Middle Ages is a series of conversations from Notre Dame’s Medieval Institute with medievalist scholars and graduate students who reveal how they became medievalists, what led them to their current research, the resources they use, and how they use them. While other podcasts about the medieval world look at specific topics, from Byzantine battle-formations to Viking voting patterns, Meeting in the Middle Ages is your peek behind the curtain to see what the academic lives of medievalists are like.
