Medieval Mentalities on Weapons and Warfare

Medieval Mentalities on Weapons and Warfare

Join Bretton Rodriguez, Ph.D. and Edward Schoolman, Ph.D. as they explore the relationships between medieval cultures and their weapons. The development of new and better martial technology shaped the nature of warfare in the medieval and early modern worlds, and it transformed the practical, decorative, social, and metaphorical values of weapons of war. 

Bretton Rodriguez, Ph.D. is a teaching assistant professor of Core Humanities at the University of Nevada, Reno. He is a specialist in the literature, history, and culture of medieval and early modern Iberia. His research focuses on the use and manipulation of the past in historical narratives.

Ned Schoolman, Ph.D. is an associate professor in the History Department at the University of Nevada, Reno.  His current research centers on facets of nobility, the process of migration, and environmental change during the Middle Ages in Italy.

The Art Bite lecture series is supported by Nevada Humanities with additional sponsorship and free admission for students supported by the Core Humanities Program at the University of Nevada, Reno.
