Seeing the Middle Ages: Exploring Medieval Daily Life and Beliefs through Images (Accredited Module)

Medieval history has frequently focused on kings and queens. However, the surviving art, such as stained glass, manuscript illumination and architectural carving, can give us an extraordinary insight into the medieval world. This module will explore the daily life and beliefs of the medieval people, using surviving visual sources to illustrate it. It will also study patterns of belief, understanding of the natural world and geography. The emphasis will be on Medieval England, but will include examples from other European countries.
