Description

"Medievalists in the Media" is a roundtable that brings four experts who have disseminated the medieval past in a variety of media formats: by print and radio news, television, and the internet. They will address the various ways medievalists can make accessible the premodern past to larger audiences through these types of media, as well as its benefits and drawbacks.
