Aims & Scope

Imago Temporis. Medium Aevum aims to contribute to the renewal of research on the medieval period by fostering an interdisciplinary and collaborative perspective. It seeks to understand medieval society in a global and overarching way, beyond current academic divisions, by publishing previously unpublished research articles covering different fields within Medieval Studies. The journal is divided into three parts: "The past interrogated and unmasked" (methodologies, methods, and historiographical tendencies), "The past studied and measured" (unpublished scientific contributions analyzing aspects of any area of the medieval past through previously unpublished sources), and "The past explained and recreated" (dissemination and transfer of knowledge about the Middle Ages to wider society, including teaching, museums, media, videogames, etc.).
