Medieval Cultures

The Medieval Cultures series (formerly the Medieval Studies at Minnesota) published volumes that studied "the diversity of medieval cultural histories and practices including such interrelated issues as gender, class, and social hierarchies, race and ethnicity, geographical relations, definitions and political space, discourses of authority and dissent, educational institutions, canonical and noncanonical literatures, and technologies of textual and visual literacies." The series editors were Rita Copeland, Barbara Hanawalt, and David Wallace and it produced in its 13 years in existence some 34 studies on various topics all focused on aspects of medieval history and cultural production, several by faculty from the Center.
