Welcome to the homepage of VAGANTES, an annual, travelling conference for graduate students studying any aspect of the Middle Ages. The conference was conceived with several goals in mind, including the fostering of a sense of community among junior medievalists, providing exposure to an interdisciplinary forum, and showcasing the resources of the host institutions — all hopefully kept within a student budget.
