Helen Barr's new translation of PATIENCE by the Gawain-poet has just been published by Broadview and it's fantastic- highly recommended for specialists and non-specialists alike! broadviewpress.com/product/p…

This looks brilliant. Great to have doctoral students @hhu_de and in Oxford working together. May also be of interest to @OxfordCCT with some similar themes being explored at that event on 24th May.
We're very excited to be sharing this: a cfp for the first ADAM (Addressing Difficult Aspects of the Medieval) workshop. Send your abstracts in by 9.6; more importantly, put 23th–24th September in your diaries.

I've just noticed my article on emotions in some of Marie's short lais and Sir Orfeo is now on JSTOR. It's in French and although not part of my main book research, it obviously features joy a lot! @IMdFS jstor.org/stable/27173172

Please make use of the new History of Emotions/Historia de las Emociones lecture series (mars.gmu.edu/handle/1920/133…), offered freely to you and your students. My own talk is on "Love"; it would be fun to compare it with Isabel Morent's talk on "Amor."

A year today since this article about Romeo and Juliet and embodied lyric was published online (April in print). It remains probably my most favourite thing I've written, excuse the indulgent anniversary posting... (open access!) academic.oup.com/res/article…
