Speaking Opportunity – Open Call
ICMS 2024: Neomedievalism and New Media (A Roundtable)

In-Person at the International Congress of Medieval Studies 2024, Kalamazoo, MI
Deadline: September 15, 2023

This roundtable discussion seeks participants interested in discussing how the pressing topics of imagined medievalism in popular culture, hierarchies and power dynamics in technology, and new media art intersect. We will critically analyze and examine the parallels between digital platforms and technological change in the Late Middle Ages with regards to their implications for governance, culture, and social dynamics. Additionally, we will assess the influence of neomedievalism in shaping communication, information dissemination, and the construction of knowledge in new media.

300-word abstracts must be submitted via the ICMS Confex system here: https://icms.confex.com/icms/2024/cfp.cgi

Discussions are listed alphabetically.
