The Medieval Association of the Midwest is a non-profitable scholarly organization founded in the early seventies by Professor Emerita Merle Fifield of Ball State University and other medievalists from Midwestern universities. This interdisciplinary association promotes the study, criticism, research, and exchange of ideas related to all aspects of the medieval period and to articulate the specific needs of medievalists in the Midwest. The Association sponsors an annual conference and sessions at the International Congress on Medieval Studies in Kalamazoo in May and at the Midwest Modern Language Association meeting in November. It also publishes an annual Publications volume and a biannual Nuntia newsletter.
Membership is open to anyone with an interest in medieval studies.
