What do Australian parliamentary ritual, heritage tourism, fantasy fiction and cinema, and modernist poetry have in common? Answer: the middle ages. The relation of contemporary culture to the medieval period keeps transforming itself at every level from the popular to the highbrow, with surprising results. In this one-day seminar, a group of distinguished international scholars will examine what the middle ages mean to the modern world, and how we make that meaning.
