New Queer Medievalisms explores new directions in the study of gay, lesbian, transgender, intersex, and asexual medieval identities and, simultaneously, will expand the work of the queer Middle Ages beyond early English or continental studies. As Annemarie Jagose points out, “Queer […] exemplifies a more mediated relation to categories of identification.” Touching on other forms of identity, Jagose’s definition of queer demonstrates how binaries which involve gender, sexuality, and culture often fail to account for a full range of experiences. Medievalists have done important work with queer in this way, and this series expands on the work done by some of these theorists. Almost every area of Medieval Studies (history, religion, philosophy) has a dedicated group of scholars interrogating the connections between medieval topics and Queer Studies. This series will provide these scholars with a new venue dedicated to their work but also bring various scholarly and geographic areas into conversation.
