International Medieval Congress 2015 – Academic Programme 6-9 July 2015 Last updated: 04 July 2015, 11:00 MONDAY 06 JULY 2015: 09.00-10.30 Session: Title: Purpose: 1 KEYNOTE ONLY - Great Hall KEYNOTE LECTURES 2015: 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 that you arrive as early as possible to avoid disappointment. The room will open 15 minutes before the beginning of the lectures.

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.

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 url is http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1111/%28ISSN%2914680254). All those attending are warmly invited to join members of the 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.

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 (Newcastle University).

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 Jörg Sonntag (Sächsische Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Leipzig / Technische Universität, Dresden).

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). Session: Title: Sponsor: Organiser: Moderator: Purpose: 406 Leeds University Union: Room 4 - Hyde Park THE PUBLIC MEDIEVALIST: WHAT IT MEANS FOR MEDIEVALISTS TO BE PUBLIC INTELLECTUALS TODAY - A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION Graduate Student Committee, Medieval Academy of America 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 Michigan), MONDAY 06 JULY 2015: 19.00-20.00 Session: Title: Sponsor: Organiser: Moderator: Purpose: 409 Leeds University Union: Room 6 - Roundhay CREEPY-CRAWLIES: A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION Medieval Animal Data-Network (MAD), Central European University, Budapest Alice Choyke, Department of Medieval Studies, Central European University, Budapest Gerhard Jaritz, Department of Medieval Studies, Central European University, Budapest Already for some years the Medieval Animal Data-Network (MAD) has been organising a round table discussion at the Leeds congress concentrating on one (group of) animal(s) and their role, perception, and functions in the medieval world. While we discussed ‘Whales’ in 2014, the 2015 meeting concentrates on ‘Creepy-Crawlies’ to be discussed in multidisciplinary perspectives. Participants include Alice Choyke (Central European University, Budapest), Michael Mecklenburg (Universität Kassel), Irina Metzler (Swansea University), Mónica Ann Walker Vadillo (University of Louisville, Kentucky), and Kathleen Walker-Meikle (University of York).

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).

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.

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. About the Medieval Academy of America: The Medieval Academy is pleased once again to host the Annual Medieval Academy Lecture, an opportunity for the Academy to showcase some of the important work being done by scholars in North America. We hope you will join us for a reception immediately following the lecture, where members of the Medieval Academy staff will be available to answer questions about the Academy and its work. For more information about the Academy, please see http://www.medievalacademy.org. All those attending are warmly invited to join members of the Medieval Academy 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 disappointment. TUESDAY 07 JULY 2015: 19.00-20.00 Session: Title: Sponsor: Organiser: Moderator: Purpose: 904 Michael Sadler Building: Banham Theatre 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 of Bristol), and Meg Twycross (Lancaster University).

Participants include Francesco Dall’Aglio (Centro Studi Luca Giordano), Helen Foxhall Forbes (Durham University), and Björn Weiler (Aberystwyth University). TUESDAY 07 JULY 2015: 19.00-20.00 Session: Title: Sponsor: Organiser: Moderator: Purpose: 906 Michael Sadler Building: Room LG.19 WOMEN RELIGIOUS: WHERE TO GO NEXT? - A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION History of Women Religious of Britain & Ireland Network (H-WBRI) / Société d’Études Interdisciplinaires sur les Femmes au Moyen Âge et la Renaissance (SEIFMAR) Kimm Curran, School of Critical Studies, University of Glasgow and Kirsty Day, School of History, University of Leeds Kirsty Day 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. Participants include Kimm Curran (University of Glasgow), Laura Cayrol Bernardo (École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales, Paris), Elizabeth Goodwin (University of Sheffield), Kathryn Maude (King’s College London), Veronica M. O’Mara (University of Hull), Mercedes Pérez Vidal (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México), Julie Ann Smith (University of Sydney), and Patricia Stoop (Universiteit Antwerpen).

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 / Universität Bremen), and Kathleen Walker-Meikle (University of York).

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 / Independent Scholar, Oxford), Matthew McHaffie (King’s College London), and James Page (University of Durham) TUESDAY 07 JULY 2015: 19.00-20.00 Session: Title: Sponsor: Organiser: Moderator: Purpose: 910 Michael Sadler Building: Room LG.15 CREATIVE WRITING AND THE MIDDLE AGES: A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION Centre of Late Antique & Medieval Studies, King’s College London Carl Kears, Department of English Language & Literature, King’s College London Carl Kears 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. Participants include Mary Baine Campbell (Brandeis University, Massachusetts), Matthew Francis (Aberystwyth University), James Antonion Paz (University of Manchester), and Victoria Whitworth (University of the Highlands & Islands).

We will discuss current editing 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’.

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.

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).

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).

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).

Lester, Department of History, University of Colorado, Boulder Anne E. Lester In 2014 the Society for Medieval Feminist Scholarship (SMFS) awarded Hannah Skoda (St John’s College, University of Oxford) the SMFS 2014 Best First Book Prize for her book, Medieval Violence: Physical Brutality in Northern France, 1270-1330 (Oxford UP, 2013). This round table will discuss Hannah Skoda’s book and its contribution to the field. Four distinguished participants from different disciplines will comment on Hannah Skoda’s book and address new directions in the field as well as offer an interdisciplinary engagement with themes and sources for understanding medieval violence. Participants include Rebecca Dixon (University of Liverpool), Irene Fabry-Tehranchi (University of Reading), Guy Geltner (Universiteit van Amsterdam), Patricia Skinner (University of Winchester), and Hannah Skoda (University of Oxford). WEDNESDAY 08 JULY 2015: 19.00-20.00 Session: Title: Sponsor: Organiser: Moderator: Purpose: 1406 Michael Sadler Building: Banham Theatre 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).

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 Jones (Bangor University).

Dryburgh, The National Archives: Public Record Office, Kew 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. Participants include Ellie Pridgeon (University of Leicester / Precise Media, London), Kimm Curran (University of Glasgow), Robert Kinsey (Boydell & Brewer, Woodbridge), and John Lee (North Yorkshire County Council, Northallerton).

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 (Stanford University).

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.

Murray, Institute for Medieval Studies, University of Leeds Alan V. Murray 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. FRIDAY 10 JULY 2015: 09.00-13.00 Session: Title: Sponsor: Organiser: Purpose: 1801 Michael Sadler Building: Room LG.19 AN INTRODUCTION TO ACADEMIC PUBLISHING: A WORKSHOP Power & Institutions in Medieval Islam and Christendom (PIMIC) / Brill Publishers / CARMEN: Worldwide Medieval Network Kate Hammond, Brill Publishers, Leiden Tutors: Catherine Cubitt, Centre for Medieval Studies, University of York, Julian Deahl, Brill Publishers, Leiden, Simon Forde, Amsterdam 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. FRIDAY 10 JULY 2015: 09.30-13.30 Session: Title: Sponsor: Organiser: Purpose: 1802 Michael Sadler Building: Room LG.15 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 Photographs (MEMLEX) at The National Archives and specialises in the fiscal and bureaucratic history of Angevin England. Sean Cunningham is a Principal Records Specialist and Manager, Medieval & Early Modern, and specialises in 15th- and 16th-century records of English royal government. Jessica Nelson is a Records Specialist with interests in queenship and government in the 12th and 13th centuries in England and Scotland. Laura Tompkins is a Reader Advisor whose research has focussed on government, parliament, and household in the late Middle Ages. Paul Dryburgh is a Records Specialist with interests in government, politics, and warfare in the British Isles in the 13th and 14th centuries. 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.
