Description: Looking Forward, Looking Back: The Problem of Before in Medieval Studies

This paper examines the ways in which temporalities and chronologies frame our understanding of both medieval and post-medieval literature, using three examples: the making of history in the tenth century; the invention of Anglo-Saxon history in contemporary British fiction; and the fictional quality of early medieval literary history.

Refreshments will be served.
