<p align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:18.0pt'>What
constituted crime in the Middle Ages and early modern time (ca. 800 to ca. 1800
C.E.)? How did people regard and treat criminals? What kind of punishments were
meted out? How did society survive in a world of criminal activities? Who were
the criminals, and who were their victims? This symposium will examine the
history of mentality concerning these two aspects and investigate practical and
theoretical characteristics. This will be a symposium in the true sense of the
word, with no more than ca. 25 papers altogether, participants coming from many
different disciplines (history of law, art history, literary history, social
history, etc.).</span><o:p></o:p></p>
