Medieval History
Call for Papers: Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman Queens and Noblewomen in ?the Long Eleventh Century?
Linked Sessions to be put forward for the Leeds International Medieval Congress 2009
We are seeking two papers to round out a set of linked sessions that will explore the lives of royal and noble women in England and Normandy during ?the long eleventh century? (allowing for a fair bit of chronological leeway). Women played vital roles in both the Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman realms, but are often considered separately by historians who consider this period as either ?pre-? or ?post-1066?. We are especially interested in bringing the two areas of scholarship together, and recognizing both the similarities and the differences in the lives and representations of women during this period. Topics for papers might include, but are not limited to:
- The representation of royal and noble women in contemporary sources
- The power and authority of women in the Anglo-Saxon or Anglo-Norman realm
- Studies of individual women who have been traditionally neglected by historians
- Re-examinations of historically prominent women
- Female roles and power within royal and noble families
Proposed titles and abstracts of 100 ? 250 words should be emailed by September 19th to Charlotte Cartwright at [email protected] .
