medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Conference Announcement:
International Scholarly Conference 'Women – Monasticism - Art
New Research on the Cultural History of the Middle Ages' in Mülheim/Ruhr, 13
to 16 May 2005.
From March 17 to June 26, 2005, the Art- and Exhibition Hall of the Federal
Republic of Germany in Bonn and the Ruhrlandmuseum in Essen will show the
exhibition:
Crown and Veil: The Art of Female Monasticism
The exhibition is dedicated to all forms of female religiosity from the early
Middle Ages until the Reformation. The focus is on works that were made by
and for nuns and canonesses. Special attention are paid to the role of women
in medieval art, be it as artists, patrons or, collectively, as an audience.
The colloquium mirrors the thematic, chronological and topographical emphases
of the exhibition. Its aim is both to reflect and further encourage the
intensive research of recent years on female monasticism of the medieval
period in the context of an international and interdisciplinary gathering.
