Medieval And Renaissance Studies In The Rockies: The Evolution Of An Idea, Allen D. Breck
Medieval And Renaissance Studies In The Rockies: The Evolution Of An Idea, Allen D. Breck
Quidditas
For many years the most persistent lament in this part of the country was the absence of a proper forum for the sharing of scholarly study of one of the most significant periods of human history, that of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Annual meetings were generally at too great a distance for many of the members and failed to collect a sufficient number of Rocky Mountain people for conviviality and the sharing of knowledge and experiences. Some sort of organization was imperative.

Quidditas
The range of topics covered in the papers presented at Flagstaff in April amply testify to the extraordinary variety of life and thought in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. The papers are a tribute, too, to the vigor of contemporary scholarly interest in these two great historical-cultural epochs. (This review, it should be noted, is based upon the full paper in some instances and in others on both the paper and the pleasure of having been present at the time it was delivered, yet there are also several papers reported here of which I have seen only an abstract.)

Quidditas
The papers in language and literature covered, as might be expected, a broad range of interests: from Beowulf to Paradise Lost, from paleography to cultural change. The following is an attempt too summarize the content of each paper, staying as close as possible to the author's pattern of argument, and following the author's own words, directly or by paraphrase; the order here follows that of the program. Where only an abstract was available as a source of summary, this has been noted.
