It can be distinguished from traditional medieval history because it is not directly concerned with the study of the Middle Ages themselves, but rather it looks at how ideas about the medieval era operate in modern culture. This volume breaks new ground by moving beyond the arena of contemporary popular culture by interpreting modern academic attitudes towards the Middle Ages as themselves forms of medievalism. What is presented as refined historical truth is no more than a construction of truth derived from the larger philosophical and cultural trends of our own day. This volume argues that modernity's sense of the medieval past is the product of the dominant intellectual movements of the nineteenth century, Romanticism and Idealism, and that nineteenth century attitudes have continued to inform current understandings of the Middle Ages. This is a narrative that combines the main themes of modern scholarship on the medieval age with a subtly portrayed picture of the philosophical culture which produced them."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aCivilization, Medieval 606 $aHistory, Modern 606 $aMedievalism 606 $aMiddle Ages$xHistoriography 606 $2History: theory & methods 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCivilization, Medieval. 615 0$aHistory, Modern. 615 0$aMedievalism. 615 0$aMiddle Ages$xHistoriography. 676 $a909.07072 700 $aKudrycz$b Walter$0947522 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459139603321 996 $aThe historical present$92140889 997 $aUNINA
