Vol. 29 No. 1 (2024): Verschränkte Welt. Medien, Modelle und Diskurse mittelalterlicher Meteorologie

Meteorological phenomena were not only a constant companion of people in the Middle Ages: Wind, rain, lightning and other atmospheric phenomena could affect and determine the existence and survival of individuals and communities. Above all, it was the fact that these phenomena were seen as the result of an entanglement of the visible reality of ‘meteors’ and the less visible cosmological structures of the universe that prompted people in the Middle Ages to explore meteorological phenomena. This special issue brings together a series of interdisciplinary contributions in the field of medieval studies that show how such phenomena were the starting point for theorising in different cultures.
