Seventeen speakers from various disciplines and various corners of Europe (and Canada) will be presenting their work on correspondingly varied forms of Marian devotion in the late Middle Ages. Marian devotion rose to new heights during that time, with a huge number of artistic depictions created in a variety of mediums and an influx of new music and texts written in her honour. Her non-biblical activities were documented in many additional writings, such as Voragine's Golden Legend, and expounded upon by theologians and philosophers alike as well as forming a central part of late medieval literature. This informal interdisciplinary colloquium aims to bring together research on Marian devotion to widen our collective understanding of its prevalence and importance in late medieval society.
