This International Conference aims to follow up the initiative “Medieval Europe in Motion: the circulation of artists, images, patterns and ideas, from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic coast”, held in Lisbon in 2013 and organized by the Institute for Medieval Studies of the Nova University Lisbon.
With the aim of creating academic, scientific and organizational synergies, this second edition will be organized in collaboration with two other international institutions, the University of Cantabria and the University of León.
The main scientific of the event, as it was the previous conference, is to analyse the phenomenon of circulation, motion and mobility of people, forms and ideas during the Middle Ages. This time, however, the kind of works under consideration will be illuminated manuscripts. This three-day Conference aims thus to conduct a critical and constructive revision of research on Iberian Book Illumination in the Middle Ages, proposing new questions to be discussed.
