CSM Member Dr. Joanne Findon's new book, Bound and Free: Voices of Mortal and Otherworld Women in Medieval Irish Literature, is being celebrated with a virtual book launch on September 30! All are welcome but registration is required here: uark.zoom.us/meeting/regi.... See the poster attached.

Another excellent panel from this year's CSM Annual Meeting. Chris Nighman spoke about two previously unknown sources for Robert of Naple's Sermo factus pro liga Lombardie, the Manipulus florum and John of Wales' Communiloquium. Much of Dr. Nighman's recent work has been exploring the manuscripts

Another day, another panel. First up, Carmen Gudiño, who examined the class diversity at the monastery of Rypertsberg under Hildegard of Bingen. While Hildegard's writings suggest that the importance of hierarchy when responding to a colleague's idea that only nobles should be allowed to enter into

Another day, another session summary! To begin, Katherine Pierpont used municipal records to trace the presence of troubadours and jongleurs in medieval Toulouse. Her work enables her to sometimes place individuals in precise domiciles and allows her to start to understand their social networks.

Congratulations to Laura Moncion, 2025 winner of the @canmedievalists.bsky.social Leonard Boyle Dissertation Prize! 🎉 www.medieval.utoronto.ca/news/laura-m...

Next up, a terrific panel entitled Queer Pasts and Queer Futurities. All of these papers looked at queer spaces, times and identities in medieval texts. Simran Dhaliwal discusses the fragility of a happy, carefree child-like Arthur in the court of Camelot in the face of expectations of masculinity

Another wonderful interactive experience at the CSM Annual conference was the DACT sound walk (still ongoing if you are at UWaterloo!). Walking with the app open past the installations will allow you to experience different chants from the database. More info here:

As promised, a recap of some of the sessions at the Canadian Society of Medievalists Annual Conference at Waterloo Ontario June 9-11 2025. First, our plenary address by Dr. Echard! An introduction to the art of facsimiles, focussing especially on the 18th and 19th centuries.

Last week was our annual conference. Over the next several days, I'll post summaries of some of the panels. But first, thanks to @stjeromesuni.bsky.social and Dragen Lab for hosting us. It was a pleasure to see all the important work being done at the lab. www.dragenlab.ca
