Our common image of the Middle Ages is of a period when cultural
activity in Europe came to a standstill. Van Oostrom challenges
this notion by presenting evidence of a lively medieval court
culture history. Not only is this a new chapter in Dutch literary
and cultural history, but it also provides a new perspective on the
larger court culture of medieval Europe. Van Oostrom interweaves
dynastic history, documentary evidence, art, architecture and
literature in his analysis of the medieval Dutch court. In
expanding our knowledge of the period, this work confronts
fundamental questions of how cultures shape themselves and how we
can effectively reconstruct and define the past.
