The difficult and nuanced issue of discrimination - race, gender,
ethicity, religion - is the focus of this volume. Discrimination
has long played a part in medievalism studies, but it has rarely
been weaponized as thoroughly and publicly as in recent exchanges.
The essays in the first part of this volume respond to that
development by examining some of the many forms discrimination has
taken in medievalism (studies) relative to race, gender, sexual
orientation, religion, and ethnicity. These papers thus inform many
of the subsequent chapters, which address a wide variety of aspects
of medievalism, showing how many cultural areas it touches upon.
Subjects include Evelyn Underhill's literary interest in the Arts
and Crafts Movement; the Anchoresses of the filmmaker Chris Newby
and novelist RobynCadwallader; cinematic battle orations;
contemporary representations of Viking helmet horns; modern
board-game culture; and Vincent Van Gogh's Studio of the South. The
volume also includes a transcription and contextualization ofthe
celebrated scholar Helen Waddell's notes on medieval texts. KARL
FUGELSO is Professor of Art History at Towson University.
