The topic, "Mobs," has resonance in a remarkable number of disciplines, as well as providing a link between the past and the present. It is still clearly of much importance today, therefore, in its widest sense, from antiquity to the writings of Elias Canetti, "Mobs" provides a context for the essays presented in this volume all of which speak to the potentially complex nature of mobs, their defining characteristics, and what the various outcomes of mobs, historical as well as those of the very recent past, have encompassed. This volume brings clarity, pungency, and understanding to a topic that brings into the discussion of disciplines such as medieval studies, literature, musicology, theology and philosophy, historical studies, including the early university, and theatre. Contributors are (in order within the volume): Leonard M. Koff, Ben Schomakers, Bernard S. Bachrach, Nancy van Deusen, Paul W. Knoll, Charlotte Bauer, Andrew Galloway, Robert W. Hanning, Terence Tunberg, Peter Howard, Cornelia Oefelein, Teofilo Ruiz, Richard Taruskin, David B. Rosen, Aino Paasonen and Richard Sogliuzzo.
