The Middle Ages was a time of constant change in society, spiritual life, and art. On the other hand, many phenomena were based on the preservation and renewal of ancient culture. Some of them continued and took on new forms in the early modern era. In recent years, medieval studies have seen a number of changes in research methods and perspectives. For example, the recycling of objects and texts for new uses has given them new interpretations while simultaneously preserving them for researchers.

Mirator is calling for articles for a thematic issue on the theme Preservation - Renewal - Change, to be published in December 2024. Articles can be from any field of research and cover any geographical area. The thematic issue is related to the 2024 Dies Medievales conference, but articles can also be proposed by non-participants.
