A YEAR OF NetMAR BLOG
The Network for Medieval Arts & Rituals is celebrating a year of NetMAR Blog!
The NetMAR Blog, which has published thirteen texts so far, is committed to finding exciting and interesting ways of communicating expert and original research into medieval arts and rituals to wider audiences. #NetMAR blog posts are published at the end of each month and are available on our website: www.netmar.cy/blog.
Visit our blog site to find fascinating answers to a series of interesting questions such as the following:
- Why should anyone study the medieval past? What can this past reveal? What has changed and what has persevered?
- How do we find, access, and make sense of medieval written records?
- What kind of heritage do ancient and medieval texts constitute? What makes ancient and medieval textual records special? Why do these sources deserve our attention?

- What does the Holy Grail have to do with ritual and meals?
- What is ‘linguistic medievalism’? And what can it show us?
- What lies behind coronation rituals? Why are they important? What do they hide and what do they reveal?
