"Intersections of Social Identity and Disability in Early Medieval England" by Marit Ronen

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. Dr Marit Ronen is an independent scholar specialising in liminal groups and identities in early medieval England and its neighbours. She has worked on ethnic relationships, life stages, and disability, and her current project focuses on cultural narratives of infanticide.
