Why should we be interested in bygone eras, and for what purpose? What meaning can the past have for the present from which we perceive it? Are past and present separable from each other and do they really occupy a fixed place in time?
From these questions, which deal with the temporality of memory, two different approaches to the distant past enter into dialogue: that of an archaeologist and that of a specialist in medieval literature. Both are open to the surprises of unexpected correspondences, and suddenly, before our eyes, appears the very way in which the past manifests itself: by becoming an event in the world in which we live.
