2025
July
07.07.2025 – 10.07.2025 Worlds of Learning. Leeds International Medieval Congress
Histories of learning have transformed fundamentally over the last generation: older research mainly investigated educational institutions or specific intellectual traditions, typically privileging forms of learning which could be connected to modern Western institutions and disciplines. More recent scholarship takes a broader approach, historicising the production and circulation of different forms of knowledge, including many non-Western cultural traditions, as well as practical knowledge, oral traditions, and types of technical or artisanal expertise not represented in the modern canon. As a result, new interdisciplinary research fields have broadened the thematic and geographical scopes of investigation and developed new comparative frameworks.Against this background, IMC 2025 invites a plurality of viewpoints investigating the manifold social, intellectual, and geographical ‘worlds of learning’ shaping pre-modern societies.
03.07.2024 – 05.07.2024 Medieval Communities. Organised by International Medieval Society, Paris.
How did people in the Middle Ages define, create, and maintain the communities they were part of? The International Society of Medievalists, Paris (IMS-Paris) is calling for proposals for papers or sessions for its 2025 conference on the theme of communities in medieval France. The term “community” can be understood in a broad sense: any grouping of people who share characteristics, affective values, or particular interests, and perceive themselves as distinct from others. Whether communes, monasteries, brotherhoods, or gatherings of warriors, lepers, or the blind, medieval women and men were able to weave close affective bonds and create multiple rituals and other community practices. With this conference, we hope to highlight new avenues of research to better understand the medieval conception of community in the Middle Ages.
