“Early Medieval Collective Identity in the Context of the Longue Durée” by Susan Oosthuizen

This recording is part of the Early Medieval Identities research seminar hosted by the AHRC-funded project, "Group Identity and the Early Medieval Riddle Tradition." The project’s focus is on the Latin and Old English riddles that survive from roughly 7th-11th-century England and the continent, and on identity, especially: the shared identities of networks of riddlers, performances of identity within our primary texts and contemporary engagements with the riddles in the modern world. This interest in identity – not just in the riddles we are studying, but in early medieval England and the world – lies behind the research seminar. We are joined by four experts on different aspects of Early Medieval Identities, who will be sharing their research with us each month from March through June 2021. Susan Oosthuizen is Professor Emerita of Medieval Archaeology in the University of Cambridge. Her research is centred on the early medieval English rural landscape with a particular focus on rights of common property across the longue durée.
