Medieval spirituality for the postmodern world—sharing authentic texts, serious scholarship, and sincere commentary to help us rediscover reality.

The Via Mediaevalis newsletter exists because the culture of the Middle Ages is a source of life-changing wisdom, beauty, passion, and interior peace for people and communities of the twenty-first century. I hope that it finds a broad audience—there will be interest and inspiration for those who enjoy learning about history, literature, philosophy, education, spirituality, Christian culture, and the visual arts. Subscribers will receive a new post in their inbox every Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday morning.

This newsletter is researched and written by Robert Keim, a linguist, literary scholar, and university instructor who has devoted a considerable portion of his adult life to exploring diverse aspects of the medieval world.
