Mass Mediævalisms: The Middle Ages of Popular Culture

Welcome to home page of the Association for the Advancement of Scholarship and Teaching of the Medieval in Popular Culture, a community of scholars and enthusiasts organized to promote and foster research and discussion of representations of the medieval in post-medieval popular culture and mass media. Encompassing material produced from the close of the Middle Ages to today, these medievalisms can be categorized as survivals, revivals, or re-creations of the medieval in post-medieval eras.

Medieval YouTube

If you're looking for an innovative way to approach a medieval topic, check out the History for Music Lovers Channel on YouTube. A group of history teachers use modern songs to present information on medieval history and literature (among other topics). (Thanks to Mr. Vincent Zibelli of Smithfield High School for the head's up.)
