This edited collection explores how knowledge was preserved and
reinvented in the Middle Ages. Rather than focusing on a historical
period or specific cultural and historical events, it eschews
traditional categories of periodisation and discipline,
establishing connections and cross-sections between different
departments of knowledge. The essays cover the period from the
eighth to the fifteenth centuries, examining the history of science
(computus, prognostication), the history of art, literature,
theology (homilies, prayers, hagiography, contemplative texts),
music, historiography and geography. Aspects of knowledge is aimed
at an academic readership, including advanced undergraduate and
postgraduate students, as well as specialists in medieval
literature, history of science, history of knowledge, geography,
theology, music, philosophy, intellectual history, history of
language and material culture. -- .
