Latest volume of annual publication covering a variety of aspects
of life in the fifteenth century. Fifteenth-Century Studies has
appeared annually since its foundation in 1977 as the publication
arm for the Fifteenth-Century Symposium, and aims to include essays
on all aspects of life during the time, medicine, philosophy,
painting, religion, science, history, ritual and custom, music, and
poetry. It covers a period which defies consensus on various
fundamental issues; indeed, some dispute that the fifteenth century
can be regarded as part of themiddle ages, arguing that it is a
time of transition to the modern age. Fifteenth-Century Studies
takes no dogmatic view on the vexed questions the period presents,
rather aiming to encourage a dispassionate assessment
offifteenth-century life and literature, examining the
preoccupations of those living in the period and attempting to
identify the threads which bind the achievements of figures as
diverse as Malory, Machiavelli, Copernicus, Caxton,Margery Kempe,
Hans Holbein, Joan of Arc, and Christine de Pizan. There is also a
wide-ranging review section.
