In addition, there is a consideration of further themes from history, theology, art and literature. The 29th volume of the "Miscellanea Mediaevalia" contains the papers delivered to the 32nd Cologne Mediaeval Studies Conference plus additional contributions. The volume includes five papers on the 50-year history of the Thomas Institute which has been organizing the Cologne Mediaeval Studies Conference for the last half century. |
