Description

This scholarly volume examines how composers and filmmakers have used music to portray the Middle Ages across approximately five hundred feature films spanning from the late 1890s to today. The book investigates the fundamental tension between historically accurate medieval music and the conventions of cinema's musical language, treating all musical elements within films as significant - from incidental sounds like bells to period minstrel songs. By placing medieval film music within the broader context of pre-cinematic medievalisms and the evolution of medievalist cinema itself, this work provides essential insight into how audiences experience and interpret the medieval period through sound. Ideal for film studies scholars, music historians, and anyone interested in how cinema constructs historical authenticity through audio design.

Key Features

Examines approximately five hundred feature-length films on the Middle Ages produced between the late 1890s and the present day.

Explores the tension between surviving evidence for authentic medieval music and the conventions of cinematic musical tradition.

Considers all musical sounds in films, from off-screen bells to minstrel performances, as essential storytelling elements.

Places medieval film music within the historical context of pre-cinematic medievalisms and medievalist cinema development.

Part of the Routledge Research in Music series, offering peer-reviewed scholarly analysis for academic and professional readers.
