This collection explores the intersection of gender and mobility
across the Global Middle Ages. Medieval Mobilities questions how
medieval people, texts, images, and ideas move across
physiological, geographical, literary, and spiritual boundaries. In
what ways do these movements afford new configurations of gender,
sexuality, and being? Enacting a dialogue between medieval studies,
feminist thought, and queer theory, Medieval Mobilities proposes
that attending to the undulations of premodern gender and sexuality
may help destabilize unstated assumptions about ways of being and
loving in the Middle Ages. This volume also brings together
emergent and established scholars to challenge an increasingly
static academy and instead envision a scholarly practice focused on
intergenerational, international, and interdisciplinary
collaboration. Drawing upon wide range of primary sources and
theoretical frameworks, the resultant essays unsettle the imagined
fixity of gender and propose alternative conceptualizations of
embodiment, identity, and difference in the medieval world.
