This volume offers a collection of thirteen studies on the subject of intercultural contact and exchange in the medieval and early modern periods. The aim of the authors was to approach this phenomenon as broadly as possible, and the resulting volume is, therefore, a fusion of different approaches to a variety of historical sources and texts. Geographical areas that are often studied separately – including the Middle East, the Caucasus, the Latin West and Central Europe (especially Poland, Germany and Hungary) – are here presented together in order to allow for cross-period and cross-regional comparisons. The chronological scope is also unusually broad, beginning with Late Antiquity and encompassing both the Renaissance and its immediate aftermath.
Adam Izdebski, PhD, is a National Science Centre Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute of History of the Jagiellonian University in Krakow. His research focuses on envrionmental, economic and cultural history of Byzantium and Late Antiquity. Among his recent publications is A Rural Economy in Transition. Asia Minor from Late Antiquity to the Early Middle Ages (JJP Supplement 18, Warsaw 2013).

Damian Jasinski is a PhD student in Classics at the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun. His research work is focused mainly on leadership and authority in religious communities of the late antique Western Mediterranean, Latin hagiography and early Christian monasticism.
