505 _aPopular images of the Middle Ages -- What are the 'Middle Ages'? -- The evidence for medieval history -- Is medieval history relevant?
520 _a This book examines the place of the Middle Ages in modern popular culture, exploring the roots of the stereotypes that appear in films, on television and in the press. The book also asks whether "medieval" is indeed a useful category in terms of historical periodization. It investigates some of the particular challenges posed by medieval sources and the ways in which they have survived, and concludes with an exploration of the relevance of medieval history in today's world.
