A great number of historical examples show how desperate people
sought to obtain a glimpse of the future or explain certain
incidents retrospectively through signs that had occurred in
advance. In that sense, signs are always considered a portent of
future events. In different societies, and at different times, the
written or unwritten rules regarding their interpretation varied,
although there was perhaps a common understanding of these
processes. This present volume collates essays from specialists in
the field of prognostication in the European Middle Ages.
Contributors are Klaus Herbers, Wolfram Brandes, Zhao Lu, Rolf
Scheuermann, Thomas Krumpel, Bernardo Bertholin Kerr, Gaelle
Bosseman, Julia Eva Wannenmacher (), Matthias Kaup, Vincent
Gossaert, Jurgen Gebhardt, Matthias Gebauer, Richard Landes.
