Ramzi Rouighi, The Medieval Mediterranean in Perspective
Time: 4 p.m.
Event Host: Medieval and Renaissance Studies
Short Description: The Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies Lecture Series continues with Professor Ramzi Rouighi, who will explore conceptions and perceptions of the Mediterranean in the medieval period.
Does the notion of Mediterranean improve our understanding of the medieval period? From the perspective of the Maghrib (North Africa), it is not immediately obvious how to answer such a basic question, although the consensus among specialists is that the usefulness of the Mediterranean is beyond doubt. A careful examination of the evolution of the concept of Mediterranean in the historiography of the medieval Maghrib situates the enthusiasm for the category and enables an evaluation of its critical potential, especially in relation to the prevailing rethinking of the Mediterranean that has been ongoing for the last few decades.For more information visit the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies.
