The lecture explores the interdisciplinary challenges in studying medieval texts, emphasizing the need to rethink how academic disciplines are structured. Gillian Evans critiques the modern tendency to compartmentalize knowledge, arguing that ancient and medieval scholars thrived in a more integrated intellectual environment. She advocates for breaking down disciplinary barriers to foster a culture of open-ended inquiry and preserve learning for its own sake, urging modern universities to embrace a more holistic approach to education and research.
