The idea to publish a special Estonian or Baltic issue of 'Medium Aevum Quotidianum' has been discussed already for a couple of years with Gerhard Jaritz and Christian Krötzl. lnitially the idea was based on the first experience of studying medieval everyday life and mentalities in a small seminar-group at Tartu University. This optimistic curiosity of discovering a new history or actually a history forgotten long ago, has been carried on. The research topics of Katrin Kukke, lnna Poltsam and Erik Somelar originate from this seminar. However, all contributions of 'Quotidianum Estonicum' were written especially for this issue.
