With its many ways of expression, knowledge has led, since the dawn of humanity, to the transformation of society. Discovering, understanding and trying to reconstrucct, from a broad and diverse perspective, the way in which individual and collective learning situations occurred in the Middle Ages is the puprose of this meeting. In this sense, it aims to become an opportunity to find answers and learning new points of view on fundamental questions such as who were the transmitters of knowledge, how and where this transmission took place, or who were the receptors. The answers to these demands are evidenced through textual, artistic, oral or musical manifestations as diverse ad the act of learning itself, which should not be understood limited to the school environment, but open to any situation. For instance, cases such as the young man who is taught by an experienced craftsman, often a family member, or the court cook who writes down his recipes so that they last over time.

Learning is a universal and timeless question. This meeting, therefore, is also an opportunity to connect the medieval knowledge with the current ways of studying it, influenced in our disciplines by the role of the Digital Humanities and by the highly controversial artificial intelligences (AI). All of these are tools that allow us to continue transferring the wisdom of those centuries in a new way, accessible and open to everyone. They are, in fact, a radical counterpoint to the many traditional educational methodologies origined somehow in the Middle Ages.
