BEYOND NATIONAL NARRATIVES: CULTURE, STATES, AND REFRAMING
‘GREGORIAN’ REFORM (LANGUAGE: ENGLISH)
SPACES OF REFORM?: URBAN RENEWAL AND THE SHAPING OF CITIES IN
MEDIEVAL EUROPE (LANGUAGE: ENGLISH)
Beyond National Narratives: Culture, States, and Reframing ‘Gregorian’
Reform
Although some exciting new models for understanding reform in the
11th and 12th centuries have emerged recently, a new overarching
narrative is badly needed. The interpretations of this critical period of
renewal proffered in university-level textbooks across European
linguistic communities still tend to access the significance of reform in
the context of national narratives. While this is understandable in
pedagogical environments that value history mostly for its utility in
producing good citizens, continuing to accept this framing neither
serves our students - who realistically perceive themselves as global,
as much as national, citizens - nor innovative scholarship. What might
constitute an assessment of the significance of the so-called ‘Gregorian’
reform beyond the context of nations?
Drawing upon research in the textual and material sources of the
secular clergy, this lecture sketches two possibilities. It argues that the
significance of the intense reform efforts of the late 11th and early 12th
centuries lies chiefly in the creation of a European-wide clerical culture
and of new forms of territorially complex states.
Spaces of Reform?: Urban Renewal and the Shaping of Cities in
Medieval Europe
The lecture explores ‘reform’ by thinking through its spatial dimensions
and its manifestation in the material renewal of urban fabric in
medieval cities across Europe. The aim is to use ‘reform’ broadly as a
way of conceptualising processes of urban renewal, looking especially
at how the shaping of cities in medieval Europe reflected a desire to
improve, to in effect modernise, them through efforts to design and
plan new urban landscapes. Such reform in urban fabric often went
hand in hand with other expressions of local urban ‘reform’, in political,
cultural, and economic aspects of urban life in the Middle Ages. To
examine this, the lecture draws from examples of urban renewal from
across Europe, spanning the period 1100-1400, and adopts a crossdisciplinary approach, combining ideas and techniques from a range of
subjects, including geography, archaeology, and history. While looking
at ‘spaces of reform’ opens up new ways of thinking about the medieval
city, specifically, it also offers scope to reflect more broadly on the
nature of cultural change in Europe during the Middle Ages, and the
process of reform itself.
Please note that admission to this event will be on a first-come, firstserved basis as there will be no tickets for the event. Please ensure

SPECIAL LECTURE: REFORMING ISLAM AT THE TURN TO THE 6TH/12TH
CENTURY: AL-GHAZALI’S PROJECT OF REVIVING RELIGION THROUGH
ARISTOTELIANISM AND MYSTICISM
A well-reported saying of the Prophet Muhammad predicts that God will
send a ‘reviver’ of Islam at the beginning of each century. In the year
500 of the Muslim calendar (equivalent to 1105 CE), al-Ghazali claimed
to be the reviver of the 6th century. By that time al-Ghazali lived
secluded, as he put it, at his birthplace in northeast Iran where he
surrounded himself with just a few faithful students. Earlier in his life
he had already risen to the most respected teaching position in the new
system of state-sponsored madrasa-education only to publicly
renounce it and to break his ties with the ruling Seljuq elite. In 1105,
however, al-Ghazali returned into the spotlight by again accepting a
prominent teaching post at a Seljuq madrasa. What he taught there
stirred unrest among the established scholars who tried to use their
influence and have him removed. Al-Ghazali’s teachings in such fields
as theology, philosophy, ethics, and Sufism mark the transition from
the period of classical Islamic theology and philosophy to a postclassical period. Severely criticizing the religious scholars and the
philosophers of his day, al-Ghazali aimed at reviving and reforming all
the ‘religious knowledge’ ( ‘ulum al-din) of Islam.
Al-Ghazali’s reform project differed from many before and after in
Islam in that it refers only cursory to the religions’ founding period and
the example of the Prophet and his companions. Its main inspiration
comes from two corners: the Aristotelian tradition in Islam, i.e. falsafa,
and Sufism. Al-Ghazali’s reform focused on the promotion of a
rationalist Muslim theology, of Sufi piety and Aristotelian virtue ethics,
as well as on the prominent role of Sufi masters. Its success can be
seen in many features of post-classical Muslim societies.
Please note that admission to this event will be on a first-come, firstserved basis as there will be no tickets for the event. Please ensure

ANNUAL EARLY MEDIEVAL EUROPE LECTURE: CAROLINGIAN CULTURES OF
DIALOGUE AND DEBATE
Early Medieval Europe
Was Christianity incompatible with public debate? There is a persistent
and widespread idea that there was an ‘end of dialogue’ in Late
Antiquity, because the church demanded obedience to authority, and
did not encourage debate and criticism. Presumably, this also held true
for the early Middle Ages. Mayke de Jong’s research into the narratives
concerning the rebellions of the 830s against Louis the Pious (814-840)
taught us differently: these revolts triggered debates that went on for
decades. The focus of the ensuing struggle for truth and legitimation
after the event were the ruler and his court, but there was also a wider
group of leading men who, by virtue of their public office carried a
heavier moral burden than others. Their accountability to God and the
ruler defined the extent of the Carolingian public domain.
Since the publication of The Penitential State in 2009 there has been a
wealth of new and inspiring research, all of which has dispelled the
hoary old notion that Late Antique and early medieval dialogue and
debate only existed as a dutiful didactic and literary genre, far removed
from the rough and tumble of the political arena. This lecture will
review some of this recent work, much of which has been presented at
the Leeds IMC, and then will concentrate on one particularly vicious
letter ascribed to Pope Gregory IV, supposedly written in June 833 on
the Field of Lies. Was this letter a typical product of a Frankish public
debate? And if so, what was ‘public’ about such debates?
The journal Early Medieval Europe (published by Wiley) is very pleased
to sponsor what is intended to become the Annual Early Medieval
Europe Lecture at the International Medieval Congress. By contributing
a major scholarly lecture to the Congress programme the journal aims
to highlight the importance of the Congress to scholars working in early
medieval European history and to support further research in this field.
Early Medieval Europe is an interdisciplinary journal encouraging the
discussion of archaeology, numismatics, palaeography, diplomatic,
literature, onomastics, art history, linguistics and epigraphy, as well as
more traditional historical approaches. It covers Europe in its entirety,
including material on Iceland, Ireland, the British Isles, Scandinavia
and Continental Europe (both west and east). Further information
about the journal and details on how to submit material to it are
available
at
http://eu.wiley.com
(the
full

is

editorial board after the lecture for a glass of wine.
Please note that admission to this event will be on a first-come, firstserved basis as there will be no tickets for the event. Please ensure
that you arrive as early as possible to avoid disapointment.

SPACES AND PLACES AS ANALYTICAL TOOLS FOR HISTORICAL RESEARCH: A
ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION

Rijksuniversiteit Groningen
Felicitas Schmieder, Historisches Institut, FernUniversität Hagen
Margriet Hoogvliet, School of Languages, Cultures & Societies - French,
University of Leeds / Vakgroep Mediaevistiek, Rijksuniversiteit
Groningen
The spatial turn in the social sciences is increasingly informing historical
research. Recently several publications about the Middle Ages and Early
Modern period have used the concepts of ‘space’ and ‘place’ as the
theoretical basis of their research, including at times historical maps
and modern maps of historical situations as visual tools. This
theoretical ‘Mapping’ session aims at the exchange of theoretical
approaches and the exploration of new ideas: where do we stand in the
further elaboration of Braudel’s, Lefebvre’s, Deleuze’s, and Guattari’s
ideas? How can we use lieux de mémoire and lieux de savoir in our
research?
Participants include Sabrina Corbellini (Rijksuniversiteit Groningen),
Paul D. A. Harvey (Durham University), Keith Lilley (Queen’s University
Belfast), Catrien Santing (Rijksuniversiteit Groningen), Bogumil Szady
(The John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin), and Magnus Williamson

IMITATION AS A CULTURAL MATRIX: A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft Netzwerk ‘Imitation: Mechanismen

Melanie Brunner, Institute for Medieval Studies, University of Leeds
Melanie Brunner
‘Imitation: Mechanisms of a Medieval Cultural Principle’ aims to
examine imitation as a conscious act of copying persons, objects,
actions, or ideas; the concept of imitation therefore provides a prism
for the study of medieval culture, as well as medieval concepts of
authority, originality, and authenticity, the link between tradition and
legitimacy, and the tension between tradition and innovation. Our
project brings together scholars from a variety of disciplines, and the
round table will consider acts of imitation as well as medieval
reflections about imitation, discussing new approaches to Medieval
Studies through the examination of imitation as a cultural matrix.
Participants include Birgit Kynast (Johannes-Gutenberg-Universität,
Mainz), Irina Redkova (Lomonosov Moscow State University), Christof
Rolker (Universität Zürich), Gerald Schwedler (Universität Zürich), and

(MIS-)USING DIGITAL TOOLS IN THE DIGITAL PALAEOGRAPHY AGE: A
ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION

Francisco José Álvarez López, Department of Modern Languages,

Francisco José Álvarez López
In the last few years the number of projects that have endeavoured to
bring the fields of Palaeography and Manuscript Studies to the core of
Digital Humanities has been outstanding. They have taken a variety of
shapes and forms. Some have aimed at providing researchers and the
general public with (sometimes free) access to medieval manuscripts
held at certain repositories. Others have gone further and produced
digital tools to allow scholars to gain much more detailed knowledge
about the hands of the scribes themselves. Among the latter, ‘Digipal’
features prominently. With this round table we intend to open up a
discussion about the use and misuse of these tools when approaching
palaeographical descriptions or editions. What makes them useful? How
can we get the most out of them?
Participants include Stewart J. Brookes (King’s College London) and
Ainoa Castro (Ohio State University).

Christopher Riedel, Department of History, Boston College,
Massachusetts and Alice Isabella Sullivan, Department of History of Art,
University of Michigan
Sanne Frequin, Center for Medieval & Renaissance Studies Amsterdam,
Universiteit van Amsterdam
This round table will consider what it means today for a medievalist to
be a public intellectual. Current developments in the popularization of
the sciences, such as Neil deGrasse-Tyson’s revisitation of Carl Sagan’s
TV series Cosmos, have enabled scientists such as deGrasse-Tyson to
enjoy some cachet as ‘public intellectuals’. How might the humanities,
and medievalists in particular, do it? Popular culture is full of elements
that resonate as ‘medieval’, but what is the proper role for a
medievalist public intellectual beyond being a film consultant or a
respondent? What career opportunities might present themselves along
these lines to young professionals?
Participants include Matthew Gabriele (Virginia Polytechnic Institute &
State University), Andrew James Johnston (Freie Universität Berlin),
Erik Kwakkel (Universiteit Leiden), and Alice Sullivan (University of

SPECIAL SESSION: BALLAR EL MORO - DANCING THE MOOR: FESTIVE
DANCES OF MOORS AND CHRISTIANS IN THE WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN
(LANGUAGE ENGLISH AND ESPAÑOL)
Festive entertainments featuring ‘Moors’ and ‘Christians’ are still staged
with more than a thousand performance locations worldwide. Halfway
between history and myth, this tradition unites customs, characters,
and meanings, going beyond the usual depiction of confrontation
between two opposing sides. Dance, music, and theatre combine to
characterize an ancient figure that originated at the cultural crossroads
of the Mediterranean: the Moor.
For centuries, the Catalan-speaking areas of the western Mediterranean
have been one of the territories in which the festive character of the
Moor has been danced most frequently and in manifold ways. Today,
those dances can still be found in one form or another, gaining a
renewed strength at the threshhold of identity and lost memory…
This talk will provide an introduction to the exhibition ‘Ballar el Moro Dancing the Moor’ located on the Parkinson Gallery throughout IMC
2015.
‘Ballar el Moro - Dancing the Moor’ is a production of the Ethnological
Museum of Barcelona and the Cultural Association Joan Amades, in
collaboration with the Department of Catalan Studies of the University
Rovira I Virgili of Tarragona and with the support of the Diputació de
Tarragona and Cases de la Festa de l’Ajuntament de Barcelona.
‘Ballar el Moro - Dancing the Moor’ has been expanded and translated
into English and Spanish for IMC 2015. This translation is a production
of the Department of Catalan Studies of the University Rovira I Virgili
and the International Consolidated Research Group LAiREM (2014 SGR
894). In this second stage, the exhibition has the support of the
Barcelona Museum of Ethnology, the Cultural Association Joan Amades,
and the International Research Group ICONODANSA (FF12013-42939
DANAEM).

SPECIAL SESSION: J. R. R. TOLKIEN AT LEEDS AND IN THE BROTHERTON
LIBRARY SPECIAL COLLECTIONS
While more famously associated with Oxford University, J. R. R.
Tolkien’s first lectureship was at Leeds where, inter alia, he completed
most of the work on his recently published translation of Beowulf. This
talk draws on literary work published during Tolkien’s time at Leeds
held in Special Collections, along with recently acquired correspondence
between Tolkien and Ida Gordon - medievalist, ex-student, and wife of
Tolkien’s friend and collaborator E. V. Gordon. It will explore how
shaping a medieval syllabus at Leeds helped Tolkien develop his own
literary endeavours.
Alaric Hall is a lecturer in the School of English at the University of
Leeds. His research focuses on Britain and Scandinavia 500-1600. He is
also working on medievalism, particularly in modern Icelandic culture.
Following the talk there will be an opportunity to observe the collection
in more detail. Due to space restrictions this talk is limited to 30
participants, and admission will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
Early arrival is therefore strongly recommended.
The Reading Room of Special Collections is open from 09.00-18.00
during the Congress week, and IMC delegates are welcome to pursue
their research and explore the collection. More details can be found at
http://library.leeds.uk/special-collections

ANNUAL MEDIEVAL ACADEMY OF AMERICA LECTURE: THE VULGATE OF
EXPERIENCE - PREACHING, ART, AND THE MATERIAL WORLD
Medieval Academy of America
We have been told repeatedly that Gothic art was ‘A Bible for the
Simple’ and ‘A Lesson for the Laity’. Yet during the era of high medieval
reform - the 12th- and 13th-centuries - the same clerics who invoked
Gregory the Great’s famous defense of religious imagery expressed
deep suspicion of sensory perception, criticizing delight in the material
world and reliance on visual stimuli as ‘Jewish’ and un-spiritual. In fact,
few pedagogical invocations of iconography have been found in
surviving medieval sermon texts. How, then, to reconcile these
tensions and explain the simultaneous intense investment in and
apparent under-exploitation of church art in the high Middle Ages?
This lecture will explore a series of sermons, exempla, and chronicle
narratives that address issues of seeing, knowing, and art in order to
explore high medieval approaches to vision, knowledge, and truth. The
aim is not to elaborate a general theory of image reception, but to
investigate how images were made to serve pastoral ends in a given
intellectual and cultural context - the flourishing urban society of high
medieval Europe. The lecture will argue that far from treating artworks
as an ‘open book’, medieval preachers employed strange, even
counter-intuitive readings to underline and even intensify the illegibility
of sculpture and stained glass, and insisted on the deceptive nature of
outward appearance. Yet at the same time they frequently cited
everyday experience and benefited from the immediate, aesthetic
reactions inspired by artworks. Pastoral invocations of art thus tread a
fine line between clear and oblique, accessible and obscure, art is used
simultaneously to reveal and safeguard religious truths. This tension is
central to the preachers’ charge: they wanted their sermons to
educate, inspire, and guide, but not emancipate their audience; they
wanted to reveal the essence of God’s word while protecting its full
force and glory. This evidence suggests that the power of images was
no less feared than the power of words, and had to be harnessed in
similar ways. It seems, in short, that art was, indeed, the ‘Bible of the
Simple’, but, as such, it had, like the word of God, to be veiled.

REFORM AND RENEWAL: NEW DIRECTIONS IN EARLY DRAMA RESEARCH - A
ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION
Medieval English Theatre / Early English Drama & Performance Network
Clare Wright, School of English, University of Kent
Alexandra F. Johnston, Records of Early English Drama, University of
Toronto
The last forty years have seen tremendous change and innovation in
medieval drama research. During this time the field has gradually
moved from the margins to hold a more central position in medieval
studies, has shifted its focus from drama-as-text to drama-asperformance and in doing so has proven the importance of performance
to medieval European culture. The field has also been subject to many
theoretical reforms as scholars seek out new approaches to the often
fragmentary extant source materials, and yet, with a new wave of early
drama scholars, there has also been a renewal of more traditional
scholarship and a return to analysing early playtexts as literary objects,
operating within a medieval reading, as well as a performance, culture.
Given Medieval English Theatre’s recent official constitution as a
Society, the IMC 2015 provides an opportune moment in which to bring
together scholars at all stages of their careers to discuss current trends
in and new approaches to medieval and Tudor drama, to think about
how far the field has advanced and its future directions.
Participants include Elisabeth Dutton (Université de Fribourg), Tamara
Haddad (University of Kent), Peter Happé (University of Southampton),
Pamela King (University of Glasgow), Laura Elizabeth Rice (University

The main purpose of this round table, which concludes the series of
sessions on ‘New Directions in the Study of Women Religious’, is to
discuss how better to assure the inclusion of the evidence of female
religious in the intellectual discourses that have formed within the field
of medieval religiosity. Obstacles, such as those posed by terminology
and periodisation, to a full understanding of female religious and the
contribution that their evidence can make to our understanding of
medieval religiosity will be considered by the participants. Two
presentations from the organisers of major projects on female religious
- one encompassing a series of international conferences on nuns’
literacies, and the other from the Société d’Études Interdisciplinaires
sur les Femmes au Moyen Âge et la Renaissance - will consider, in
conjunction with other participants, the best way forward for these
projects.

WHAT IS THE CULTURAL HISTORY OF MEDICINE IN THE MIDDLE AGES?: A
ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION
School of History, University of Leeds
Iona McCleery, School of History, University of Leeds
Joanne T. Edge, Department of History & Philosophy of Science,
University of Cambridge
The year 2019 will see the publication of the Cultural History of
Medicine in six volumes (Bloomsbury). The overall editor of the project,
modern historian Roger Cooter, is keen that all the authors engage with
the concept of the cultural history of medicine and reflect on their
approaches to the subject. The authors working on the volume devoted
to medieval medicine would therefore like to explore the following
questions with an international audience:
What does a ‘cultural’ history of medicine look like? How does it differ
from a ‘social’ history of medicine? Is the word ‘medicine’ a problem in
its own right? What are the cultural theories/approaches/frameworks
that have influenced you or that you use regularly in your research?
How do the different disciplines/departments/institutions/countries that
you belong to affect the way you research, write and teach the history
of medicine? What about your other identities/roles? Do medievalists
use cultural theory differently from modernists and if so why? Does it
matter?
Participants include Florence Eliza Glaze (Coastal Carolina University),
Iona McCleery (University of Leeds), Irina Metzler (Swansea University

EMOTIONS IN THE COURTROOM: A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION

Andrews / Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for the
History of Emotions
Kimberley-Joy Knight, Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence
for the History of Emotions, University of Sydney
John Hudson, St Andrews Institute of Mediaeval Studies, University of
St Andrews
The recent surge of interest in the history of the emotions has seen
medievalists uncover a broad range of new source material recording
the affective lives of Europeans in the Middle Ages. A parallel growth of
interest in crime and judicial records from ecclesiastical and secular
courts has identified these as excellent sources and made clear that the
courtroom could be a locus for emotionally charged events, in which
anger, fear, and love feature prominently. This round table will bring
together the insights of these strands of research, and will address the
following themes:
the role that emotions played in legal conduct
emotional responses to punishment or leniency
provoked, faked, and repressed emotions
the influence of religious norms and moral codes
Patricipants include Kimberley-Joy Knight (University of Sydney), John
Hudson (University of St Andrews), Paul Hyams ( Cornell University /

This round table brings together writers and creative medievalists to
depart from ongoing discussions of ‘medievalism’ and think in more
detail about the processes and possibilities of using medieval literature
to create new fictions, new poems, and new works of art. Contributors
will discuss their own approach to creative writing, translation, and
imaginative scholarship; offer extracts and examples of projects old
and new; and ask why the Middle Ages proves a seemingly
inexhaustible resource for those writing in a variety of modern genres.
It is anticipated that this session will overrun; attendees are invited to
stay afterwards and join in the discussion.

This round table will address the modalities of reception of the key

projects as well as the reasons behind the availability or lack of critical
editions and/or vernacular translations, focusing on why certain works
were made accessible and others ignored. We will also pay attention to
the way early modern prints, which are readily accessible but
notoriously and sometimes intentionally biased, have distorted our
image of the Wycliffite and Hussite ideas. This round table discussion
complements the series of sessions on ‘Wycliffe, Hus, and the Impact of
Reform’.
Participants include Anne Hudson (University of Oxford), Stephen Lahey
(University of Nebraska, Lincoln), Pavlina Rychterová (Österreichische
Akademie der Wissenschaften, Wien), Elizabeth Solopova (University of
Oxford), and Fiona Somerset (University of Connecticut).

Brotherton Library: Brotherton Room
SPECIAL SESSION: SECRETS OF EARLY PRINTED BOOKS - THE LEEDS
INCUNABULA REVEALED
Leeds University Library
This session will focus on the earliest printed books kept in Special
Collections at the University of Leeds.
Leeds University Library has over 300 incunabula, that is, books printed
in Europe before 1501. The majority of the incunabula in the collection
were acquired by Lord Brotherton of Wakefield, the library’s greatest
benefactor, and another 40 items are on deposit from Ripon Cathedral
Library.
Last year Rhiannon worked on a project to enrich the existing catalogue
records for the incunabula. The records now include details of any
decorations and annotations to the text, notes on previous owners, and
a full description of the binding. The project has given a greater insight
into Lord Brotherton’s collecting strategy - he and his librarians wanted
to build a representative collection of high-quality items that would
illustrate both the geographical range of early European printing and
the variety of subject matter with which early printers and publishers
were concerned.
The talk will offer an overview of the collection, looking in particular at
what makes the copies of these books at Leeds unique. Afterwards
there will be an opportunity to look at items from the collection in more
detail. Due to space restrictions this talk is limited to 30 participants,
and admission will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Early arrival is
therefore strongly recommended.
Special Collections houses over 200,000 rare books and seven
kilometres (4.3 miles) of manuscripts and archives, including the
celebrated Brotherton Collection, the Melsteth Icelandic Collection, the
Archives of the Dean & Chapter of Ripon, the Roth Collection, and the
Oriental Manuscript Collection
The Reading Room of Special Collections is open from 09.00-18.00
during the Congress week, and IMC delegates are welcome to pursue
their research and explore the collection. More details can be found at

A BABYLONIAN CONFUSION OF TONGUES: LOOKING FOR WAYS TO ADDRESS
‘REFORM AND RENEWAL’ ACROSS MEDIEVALIST DISCIPLINES - A ROUND
TABLE DISCUSSION
Steven Vanderputten, Vakgroep Geschiedenis, Universiteit Gent
Steven Vanderputten
This round table discussion brings together experts from various fields
in medieval studies to discuss the semantic and methodological
challenges facing scholars when studying reform and renewal in
medieval contexts. It is becoming increasingly clear that different
disciplines in medieval studies, and even different specializations within
each of these, rely on different definitions of what constitutes a reform
or renewal of past practices, attitudes, and beliefs. These definitions
often originated in intellectual circumstances far removed from what we
currently regard as objective observation of past realities. The result is
that is has become very difficult to discuss reform and renewal across
disciplines, or even establish a consensus on what constitutes a reform,
or a renewal. Basing themselves on the current state of the art in
medieval studies, the issues addressed in the keynote lectures, and
three days’ worth of sessions on reform and renewal, the participants
will investigate the origins of this problem, consider possibilities for
resolving it, and identify priorities for future theoretical and sourcebased research.
Participants include Frank Griffel (Yale University), Carmen Cardelle de
Hartmann (Universität Zürich), Conrad Leyser (University of Oxford),
and Maureen C. Miller (University of California, Berkeley).

THE TWITTERATI: USING TWITTER IN MEDIEVAL SCHOLARSHIP AND
PEDAGOGY - A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION
East Coast Medieval Graduate Alliance
Carla María Thomas, Department of English, New York University
Carla María Thomas
We will discuss the utility of Twitter in medieval scholarship and college
pedagogy in this round table. Starting with one scholar’s recent joining
of Twitter (why she resisted before and why she ultimately decided to
begin tweeting), we will move to some of the top tweeters of Leeds
2014. They will demonstrate and address the following: getting started
with Twitter, live-tweeting at conferences with data collected from
Leeds 2014 and Kalamazoo 2014, community networking within and
across disciplines, using Twitter as a tool in the college classroom, and
Twitter activism. We are calling on more to join the Twitterati!
Participants include Angela Bennett Segler (New York University), Heide
R. Estes (University of Cambridge), Jonathan Hsy (George Washington
University), Dorothy Kim (Vassar College), and Kristen Mapes (Michigan
State University).

CLIMATE, LAND, AND ENVIRONMENT AT LATE MEDIEVAL HERSTMONCEUX: A
ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION
Herstmonceux Project
Steven Bednarski, Department of History, University of Waterloo,
Ontario
Scott McLean, Bader International Study Centre, Herstmonceux Castle /
Queen’s University, Kingston
This round table discusses the preliminary findings and broad context
of
the
Herstmonceux
Project,
an
ambitious
international,
interdisciplinary project funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities
Research Council of Canada. The Project aims to uncover the lost
medieval village of Herstmonceux, abandoned at a time of climate
change, to reveal the impact of climate on late medieval land use,
settlement, and culture. To do this, we blend archival research,
archaeology, palaeontology, and climatology. For more information,
please visit www.medieval-environment.com
Participants include Steven Bednarski (University of Waterloo), Andrew
Moore (University of Waterloo), and Miriam Müller (University of
Birmingham).

THE FUTURE OF RELIGIOUS MEN: ESTABLISHING AN AGENDA - A ROUND
TABLE DISCUSSION
Bishop’s Eye Research Network
Katherine J. Lewis, Division of History, University of Huddersfield
Joanna Huntington, School of History & Heritage, University of Lincoln
Bishop’s Eye exists to study the intersections of men as men with
religious practice. Our focus is not, however, explicitly or exclusively
gendered. Indeed, we are especially keen to develop conversations
between gender scholars and those who would not normally consider
their research to have gendered implications. More broadly we aim to
work across what can still be perceived as impenetrable methodological
barriers. In this session the speakers will explore potential priorities for
the study of medieval men and religion in the next decade. For
example, while we think we have a fairly clear sense of the main
features of women’s/feminine piety we have a much less specific sense
of what men’s/masculine piety might look like and how that is or might
(not) be differentiated between lay and clerical men, or between men
of different social status and profession (or indeed between men and
women).
Participants include Michael Burger (Auburn University at Montgomery,
Alabama), Patricia Cullum (University of Huddersfield), Katherine J.
Lewis (University of Huddersfield), and James Richardson (University of
York).

HISTORICAL WRITING IN BRITAIN AND IRELAND, 500–1500:
INTERDISCIPLINARY QUESTIONS AND APPROACHES - A ROUND TABLE
DISCUSSION
Centre for Medieval Literature, University of York & Syddansk
Universitet, Odense
Jennifer Jahner, Division of the Humanities & Social Sciences, California
Institute of Technology
Cynthia Turner Camp, Department of English, University of Georgia,
Athens
This panel brings together select contributors to an edited volume,
forthcoming from Cambridge UP, which surveys key developments and
trends in British and Irish historical writing across the Middle Ages.
Presenters will be asked to discuss their specific research, but also to
reflect upon the methodological challenges and opportunities endemic
to a large-scale, interdisciplinary project like this one. How do literature
scholars and historians constitute their arguments and evidence? How
do we define the parameters of ‘historical writing’ or ‘national’
historiographical traditions? The volume editors, as participants and
panel organizers, welcome the questions and feedback of the larger
IMC community.
Participants include Kate Ash (Liverpool Hope University), Charles F.
Briggs (University of Vermont), Magali Coumert (Université de Bretagne
Occidentale, Brest), Sarah Foot (University of Oxford), and Owain Wyn

This round table is aimed at Masters and PhD students, as well as at
medievalists considering careers outside the traditional academic
environment. In light of the short-term contracts and reduced funding
in HE, this is a common decision for 21st century post-graduates. The
panel is composed of participants from a number of sectors, including
media, archives, publishing, landscape heritage, and local government.
This is a unique opportunity to hear professionals - all of whom have
successfully undertaken PhDs themselves - discuss career paths, and
for you to pose questions and seek advice on your future vocation.

MULTILINGUAL COMMUNICATION: A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION
International Medieval Society, Paris / Société Internationale des

Emma Campbell, Department of French Studies, University of Warwick
Emma Campbell
Interest in medieval multilingualism has, in recent decades,
transformed narratives of linguistic change, the study of linguistic and
political geographies, and the conceptualization of translation and
cultural contact. This round table on multilingual communication
showcases current approaches to the multilingualism of medieval
societies, focusing on the relationships between French and other
languages in different areas of the medieval world. The aim of the
round table will be to discuss the methodological and disciplinary issues
that research in this area presents and to consider new directions for
further research.
Participants include Keith Busby (University of Wisconsin, Madison),
Ruth Evans (Saint Louis University, Missouri), and Elaine Treharne

mystical exegesis within medieval theology. The panel will reflect on
the relationship between mystical theology and theology both within
and outside of the schools, and in particular in relation to scriptural
texts and images that play a pivotal role within medieval mysticism.

SPECIAL SESSION: CONTEMPORARY COMPOSERS AND THE RENEWAL OF
MEDIEVAL PRACTICE?: MEDIEVAL MODELS IN THE WORK OF JUDITH WEIR
Many 20th-century British composers have turned to medieval models
for inspiration. Is their use of medieval models a means to establish
identity and authenticity, or simply a reaction against the overwhelming
harmonic and formal legacy of the 19th century? What do contemporary
composers, and indeed, what do we, understand by medievalism
today? How important to us, as audience, is it to understand or know
the medieval sources so used? How is the use of pre-existent material
integrated into the contemporary creative process?
Judith Weir, amongst many contemporary British composers, including
composers as diverse as James Macmillan and Peter Maxwell Davies,
has openly used medieval and other pre-existent models in her
compositions. Her interests in narrative, folklore, and theatre have
found expression in a broad range of musical invention. She has
derived inspiration from diverse sources, which include Icelandic sagas
and Chinese Yuan Dynasty drama. Her work is lauded and slated in
equal measure, often for her openness in acknowledging her sources.
Examining the musical textures of Weir’s choral work All the Ends of
the Earth, which recreates Perotin’s organum Viderunt Omnes, this
paper seeks to put Weir’s use of medieval sources into the wider
context of medievalism in contemporary music.
Graham Coatman is a commissioned composer, performer, and musical
director involved in the performance and teaching of early and
contemporary music. His research into medievalism in 20th-century
music at Huddersfield University has led to invitations to deliver papers
at the inaugural MAMO (Middle Ages in the Modern World) conference
at St Andrews in 2013, and a return in 2015, to directing Maxwell
Davies’s 8 Songs for a Mad King. Graham is Director of 20,000 Voices,
promoting singing across north east England, and the Director of HISS
(Historically Informed Summer School), which he founded in 2011 to
explore connections between early, folk, and traditional music. Recent
commissions include the following premieres: the violin concerto Bakolo
Drom (Swaledale Festival 2012), a trilogy of choral works on texts by
Bede, including Quis Domini Expediet (directed by James Weeks and
performed by EXAUDI vocal ensemble at Hexham Abbey Festival
2010), and The Witch of Slatterdale (Swaledale Festival 2013), a music
theatre work based on an apocryphal tale from a monk at Byland
Abbey.

The International Medieval Bibliography (IMB) is the world’s leading
multidisciplinary bibliography of Medieval Studies, offering an online
database of over 400,000 publications in 62 disciplinary areas. This
workshop offers the opportunity to learn more about the possibilities
for using its search interface and functionality, controlled vocabulary,
and indices both to discover specific relevant publications and to
construct larger bibliographies. It will also demonstrate some of the
other new features - notably metrics for journals and authors - which
have recently been added to the IMB.

AN INTRODUCTION TO ACADEMIC PUBLISHING: A WORKSHOP

University Press / CARMEN: Worldwide Medieval Network, Alaric Hall,
School of English, University of Leeds, and Jonathan Jarrett, Barber
Institute of Fine Arts, University of Birmingham
The world of academic publishing can seem daunting to scholars at the
start of their career. The academic publishers Brill, partner of the EUfunded Power and Institutions in Medieval Islam and Christendom
Initial Training Network (PIMIC-ITN), will offer a morning workshop
giving postgraduate students and early career scholars a valuable
insight into academic publishing, from both sides of the table.
Three sessions will look at three different formats of academic
publishing. We will consider the all-important book proposal, with a
focus on converting the PhD thesis into a monograph; the process of
writing a journal article; and producing an edited volume of conference
proceedings. A medievalist well-versed in academic publishing will kick
off each session with a talk based on their own experiences, and the
participants will then have the opportunity to consider matters from the
other side of the table, as they conduct their own editorial board
meetings discussing and assessing a book proposal / journal article /
volume of conference proceedings. The workshop leaders, as well as
academic publishers, will be on hand to guide and advise the
participants in their discussions; there will also be opportunity for a
questions and answer session.
There are no pre-requisites for attending the workshop. Tea and coffee
will be provided during the mid-morning break. Fee: £7.50.
The workshop can only accommodate a limited number of participants.
Early booking is strongly recommended. Participants will receive a
certificate of attendance on the day.

AN INTRODUCTION TO MEDIEVAL RECORDS AT THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES: A
WORKSHOP
The National Archives: Public Record Office, Kew
Paul R. Dryburgh, The National Archives: Public Record Office, Kew
Tutors: Sean Cunningham, Paul R. Dryburgh, Jessica Nelson, and Laura
Tompkins - all The National Archives: Public Record Office, Kew
For all medievalists the ability to locate, read and understand archival
sources is fundamental to their research whatever their discipline and
stage in their career. The National Archives of the United Kingdom
(TNA) holds one of the world’s largest and most important collections of
medieval records. The vast archive of English royal government informs
almost every aspect of medieval life from the royal court to the
peasantry, land ownership and tenure, the law, warfare and diplomacy,
trade and manufacture, transport, credit and debt, death and memory,
material culture, literature, art and music. However, finding, using, and
interpreting the rich diversity of material is not always entirely
straightforward and its potential for a wide range of research uses often
unclear. This workshop will offer an introduction to TNA, show you how
to begin your research into its collections, and access research support.
A course-pack with facsimiles of original documents will be used to
illustrate the range of disciplines and topics TNA records can inform and
illuminate.
The workshop is aimed at all medievalists, from Masters students
through to experienced academics in any discipline, who wish to
discover more about the rich archive collections at TNA and how they
might use them in their research. There are no pre-requisites for
attending the workshop, although a basic knowledge of Latin is
recommended. Participants will have access to a course-pack with
readings and further information, as well as receive a certificate of
attendance on the day.
Nick Barratt is Head of Medieval, Early Modern, Legal, and Maps and
