The topic of the 9th International Medieval Latin congress Medialatinitas, which was attended by more than 140 participants from 21 countries, was “Nostalgia and/in the Latin Middle Ages”, and one of its aims was both to deploy and explore as well as problematize and challenge the concept of “nostalgia” itself. What patterns does it follow? In what contexts does it appear? How is nostalgia linked to the present and even future rather than simply to the past? How might we distinguish an orientation towards the past that sees it as sacred and exemplary from more modern conceptions of nostalgia? Could we characterize the backwards glance of medieval Christian reformers to the apostolic age as a form of nostalgia? The main organizer of the congress was the Institute of Greek and Latin Studies at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University (primarily through projects KREAS and Cooperatio) Prague, co-organizing parties were Faculty of Humanities of the Charles University, the Centre for Classical Studies and Centre for Medieval Studies at the Institute of Philosophy of the Czech Academy of Sciences. It was also supported by LINDAT/CLARIAH-CZ.
