Obscurity has been recognized as a component or aspect, a possibility, of discourse since the very beginnings of European culture. The word has numerous connotations, some of which contradict one another, and perhaps refers to a set of ideas rather than to a single idea. Nevertheless, as this volume shows, the notion is crucial for the overall conception of reality and its exploration reveals new features of medieval life and thought.
