No. 26 (2019): Medievalista - "Medieval Europe in Motion. The Middle Ages: a Global Context” Thematic Dossier

This issue's thematic dossier is a direct outcome of the conference "Medieval Europe in Motion. The Middle Ages: a Global Context". Its organizers endeavored to bring together scholars to debate on one of the lines of IEM’s strategic project: "People and Knowledge in Motion: Medieval Portugal in Trans-European Networks". The aim was to discuss and reassess research related to mobility, circulation of models, and global phenomena in the Middle Ages, such as the polychrome Romanesque wood carvings in Europe. The articles included in this issue of the journal reflect the concern of researchers with the study of these sculptures, drawing attention to the importance of polychromy in works that appear to us today as a pale image of their original reality.
