About us
History, research, and outreach from an archive that honors the historian’s craft and the reach of contemporary medieval studies.
An illuminated archive
México Medieval is a digital archive dedicated to medieval history in dialogue with México and the Hispanic world: academic research, curated materials, and outreach for readers inside and outside the university.
Research & publications
Books, peer-reviewed articles, and papers exploring nobility, institutions, and narrative sources in the medieval Mediterranean and their historiographic echoes.
Public voice
The podcast and audio collaborations bridge erudite archives and wide conversation about myths, symbols, and medieval memory.
Archive in progress
This site gathers paths to books, articles, presentations, and episodes; other sections (for example video) will grow as they are published.
The Digital Manuscript
Dr. Hervin Fernández Aceves
FRHistS
Historian and medievalist; his work combines prosopography, network analysis in narrative sources, and debates on Norman and south Italian nobility.
The editorial line of México Medieval reflects years of research on political society, counties, and sources of the Norman Mezzogiorno, as well as historiographic studies that question Mediterranean “connectivity” seen from the periphery and the Global South.
Beyond written scholarship, he advances audio outreach: the México Medieval series and appearances on other academic and cultural programs.
