Sharing Knowledge in the Middle Ages

Conference: 10-11 November 2023, Bucharest, Romania
Deadline for submissions: 5 October 2023

For several decades, research on the forms and the dynamics of knowledge in the Middle Ages has been based on a binary logic, aiming both at the accumulation of positive knowledge and at the changes in the field of knowledge which invite to the critical revision of the previous conceptions and which end up attributing a particular identity to each stage of medieval cultural history. From this point of view, modern studies resume the landmarks of the thought of medieval intellectuals, such as the 13th century efforts to classify and to order, in a time when the culture of the cloisters was followed by the culture of the universities.

Since the objective of this conference is to facilitate exchanges between specialists from different academic fields, possible topics include:

  • Contents and codifications of knowledge
  • Networks and contexts for the dissemination of knowledge
  • Forms and avatars of the dissemination of knowledge
  • Knowledge and critical thinking
