Matthew Gabriele

Welcome to American Medieval, a podcast about the fact that if the United States has never been truly modern, it's probably because we've always been a little bit medieval.

I'm your host, Professor Matthew Gabriele, and I've been researching, teaching, and talking about the Middle Ages, well, to anyone who will listen at least, for more than three decades.

Each week on the show, we'll be joined by an expert scholar who'll share their fascination with, and sometimes their revulsion by, both the medieval world itself, as well as the ways the historical period has been remembered and used right here in the USA.

Welcome back, everyone, to another episode of American Medieval.

Bye-bye.

Thanks for listening to this episode of American Deval, proud member of the Multitude Podcast Collective.

I'm your host, Professor Matthew Gabriele, and this episode was edited by Julia Schifini.

The theme song to American Deval is from the song Sleeping Bags by OTE.

Hello, everyone, and welcome back to another episode of American Medieval.

I am, of course, Professor Matthew Gabriele, and I am delighted to be joined by two guests today, two for the price of one.

Julia Perratore is Associate Curator in the Department of Medieval Art at The Cloisters, where she specializes in the art of Southern Europe.

And Joanne Pillsbury is Andrall E. Pearson Curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the author, editor, co-editor of numerous books and articles on the subject of ancient American art, specifically of the Andean region.

Um, I hope that our listeners will be inspired, and they should rush out and see the exhibition as soon as possible, and to start thinking kind of more broadly about a permeable, expansive kind of medieval world in which there were lots of things happening, not just in Europe, but all over the place as well.
