The essays in the first part of this volume address authenticitydirectly, discussing  the 2017 Middle Ages in the Modern World conference; Early Gothic themes in nineteenth-century British literature; medievalism in the rituals of St Agnes; emotions in \u003ci\u003eGame of Thrones\u003c\/i\u003e; racism in Disney's Middle Ages; and religious medievalism. The essayists' conclusions regarding authenticity then inform, even as they are tested by, the subsequent papers, which consider such matters as medievalism in contemporary French populism; nationalism in re-enactments of medieval battles; postmedieval versions of the \u003ci\u003eKingis Quair\u003c\/i\u003e; Van Gogh's invocations of Dante; Surrealist medievalism; chant in video games; music in cinematic representations of the Black Death; and sound in Aleksei German's film \u003ci\u003eHard to Be a God\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Karl Fugelso is Professor of Art History at Towson University in Baltimore, Maryland.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e   Contributors: Aida Audeh, Tessel Bauduin, Matthias Berger, Karen Cook, Timothy Curran, Nickolas Haydock, Alexander Kolassa, Carolyne Larrington, David Matthews, E.J.
