## Description

The Public Medievalist is an online magazine exploring the connections between the medieval world and modern life. Its public-history approach examines how the Middle Ages are studied, remembered, represented, and used in contemporary culture and politics. The publication offers articles, reviews, interviews, special series, and podcast content for readers interested in history and its present-day influence.

Coverage spans race and racism, gender and sexuality, politics, feminism, class and religion, education, museums and heritage, and popular culture. Contributors also examine medieval themes in film and television, games, the internet, theatre, and fantasy, often comparing familiar portrayals with historical evidence. Special series address topics such as race, racism, and the Middle Ages, as well as gender, sexism, and medieval history. The site features The Public Medievalcast and a podcast about using history, alongside staff information, FAQs, contact details, and subscription options. By connecting scholarship with accessible cultural commentary, The Public Medievalist helps readers question common assumptions about medieval history and understand why its stories and imagery continue to matter today.
