The House of Luxembourg, a prominent ruling house in late medieval Europe, holds a significant place in history. Between 1308 and 1437, this dynasty played a pivotal role in shaping the political destiny of much of Europe. Their legacy can be observed in various aspects of culture, including art, architecture, literature, music, and more. While some remnants of Luxembourg's cultural heritage can still be experienced in present-day Prague, southern Germany, and through the works of Machaut, Froissart, and Wolkenstein, their influence extended far beyond their homeland. This book explores the pan-European impact and influence of the Luxembourgs in a wide range of fields, including art and architectural history, material culture, text production in Czech, French, German, and Latin, gender and intellectual history, and music. By adopting multi-disciplinary and transnational perspectives, the essays in this volume offer fresh insights into the late medieval cultures of the Luxembourg court. Key subjects covered include the creation of the Wenceslas Bible, Machaut's role at the court of John of Luxembourg, and Charles IV's patronage of multilingual literature.
