Résumé

This essay provides an overview of recent French-language scholarly work in the field of medievalism studies, with a particular emphasis on possible and real theoretical pitfalls and shortcomings. In doing so, it argues for a greater dialogue between Anglo-American and continental European approaches to the field, and shows how the articles in the present collection might illustrate a new, more rhizomatic medievalism.
