This volume is about rehabilitating theoretical curiosity for the millennium that we refer to as the Middle Ages. What does it mean to adopt a theoretical attitude? Have there been cultural differences or changes in the meaning of curiositas ? This is where two attitudes collide: curiositas as misguided curiosity and as a natural longing in the sense of an anthropological existential.
