Codex Aquilarensis

An annual academic yearly journal devoted to the study of medieval art, Codex Aquilarensis: Revista de arte medieval has updated and perfected its scholarly profile. Drawing on a prestigious position in Spanish scientific literature, Codex Aquilarensis aims gradually to assume an outstanding position in the international panorama of medieval art history journals; and, to expand its scope, it welcomes contributions from authors writing about any topic related to medieval art and visual culture, including studies written in languages other than Spanish. The journal will accept unpublished essays analyzing the processes and protagonists of the artistic production of the Middle Ages, as well as its visual and written reception in medieval societies and beyond. It also welcomes papers about the visual products of cultural interactions generated within medieval societies. Codex Aquilarensis intends also to contribute to the historiographical debates that currently attract the attention of readers and researchers around the world. A primary focus is on the development and experience of medieval images and spaces and the dynamics of images in their monumental contexts, in particular, studies focused on medieval visual culture and the functional organization of places of worship during the period from the seventh to sixteenth centuries. To advance these such exciting questions and historiographical debates, the journal values papers that include diverse intellectual perspectives and current methodological approaches, such as semiotic (enquiring into the intersections between text and images), cultural anthropology, critical theory, and the history of cultural representations.
