About this listen

The Multicultural Middle Ages Podcast brings medievalists from all professional and disciplinary tracks together to think and talk about the too-oft-unsung diversity of the Middle Ages. We offer public-facing, open access content directed at experts and non-experts alike to present updated, accurate, and culturally responsible accounts of the plurality of the medieval period.

Series producers: Will Beattie, Jonathan Correa Reyes, Loren Lee, Reed O'Mara, and Logan Quigley.

Our podcast is made possible by our partnership with the Graduate Student Committee of the Medieval Academy of America. Our Speculum Spotlight series is produced in partnership with Speculum: A Journal of Medieval Studies, and we are especially grateful for the support of Speculum’s Editor, Katherine L. Jansen.

    French Fantasies in the Medieval North: Translating Old French Romances at the Court of King Hákon Hákonarson of Norway
