Medievalism: Key Critical Terms
A major new work on medievalism, it deserves to be studied by students or scholars interested in this latest period of a medieval revival* PARERGON *
This book is a highly informative, accessible, and occasionally humorous guide for anyone interested in learning about medievalism on a macro-scale. * TOEBI *
Matthews' account of the history and contemporary status of medievalism is both highly readable (he is an elegant stylist) and frequently provocative. . . . [He] offers a fresh overview and compelling meta-commentary on the history and practice of medievalism, focusing on its uneasy relationship with medieval studies. * THE MEDIEVAL REVIEW *
In his well-researched book, Medievalism: A Critical History, David Matthews provides a foundational study for the multidisciplinary field of medievalism studies. * MEDIEVALLY SPEAKING *
Tracing the history of medievalism from the 16th century to today, the author closely examines significant phases in the development of medievalism studies, paying special attention to the period between 1815 and 1850, which he cogently argues was the apogee of medievalism in European popular culture, and provides the foundation for the relationship between medievalism and medieval studies. Recommended. * CHOICE *
