Summary
In August 1997, a conference entitled ‘Medieval Futures’ was held by the Centre for Medieval Studies at the University of Bristol. The present volume contains a selection of the papers delivered on that occasion, together with one new contribution. The conference was organized by Dr Brendan Smith and Professor John Burrow, assisted by Mr George Ferzoco and Dr Rhiannon Purdie. It was most generously funded by the university’s Read-Tuckwell Bequest, and we are extremely grateful to the Read-Tuckwell Committee for their support. We are also grateful to the Arts Faculty Research Fund for a grant towards the translation of Professor Schmitt’s paper.
