James A. Brundage
James A. Brundage (5 February 1929 โ 5 November 2021[1]) was Professor Emeritus of history and, prior to his retirement, Ahmanson-Murphy chair of medieval European history at the University of Kansas. He earned his PhD from Fordham University[2][3] and was a member of the History department at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee before moving to Kansas.[4] Brundage specialized in the history of medieval canon law.
In the first half of his career, he studied the history of the crusades from the point of view of canon law. In later years, he turned to the study of the medieval professionalization of law. He also did scholarly work on canon law and medieval sexuality, and created a tongue-in-cheek flow-chart explaining medieval Christian sexual ethics.[5]
