We will begin bydiscussing a few short medieval European texts before looking atmodern depictions of the medieval period. Although ourinvestigation of the ways in which the medieval is perceived andthe uses to which that image is put will begin with earlynineteenth-century English literary and artistic pieces, ourprincipal focus will be on contemporary adaptations of medievalliterature and history in contemporary visual media,including-but not limited to-film, TV, music videos, andadvertising.
