The study of medieval attitudes towards death, from sociological,
historical, literary artistic and theological viewpoints, has long
been a major scholarly preoccupation in France. The first British
conference devoted to this field was the Eugene Vinaver Colloquium
held in Manchester in March 1983; this volume contains its revised
proceedings. Covering a broad range of disciplines (history,
literature, theatre, theology among others) and a diversity of late
medieval European cultures; it offers a challenging conspectus of
scholarly thinking about attitudes towards death from St Bernard
and Dante to the Renaissance.
