The journal A Medievalista once again lives up to its aims, both in promoting studies on the Middle Ages and in bringing together authors from different geographical backgrounds and various fields of knowledge. While acknowledging the necessarily imperfect and provisional nature of the narratives through which historians seek to reconstruct the meaning of past societies, investigating these realities and communicating possible discoveries remains as compelling as the joy of life itself.
