The Societas Ovidiana welcomes proposals for a virtual panel to be held at the International Congress on Medieval Studies (ICMS) on May 8-10, 2025.
Given the global turn in medieval studies, it is important to reconsider the place of ancient authors beyond the sphere of European reception.
This panel invites global perspectives on the medieval reception of Ovid.
Proposals might consider, but are not limited to the topics of:
- Teaching the medieval Ovid across the globe
- Theoretical, methodological, or cultural assessments
- Exile
- Migration
- Translation and language
- (De-)colonisation
- Digitisation and global mapping of Ovidʼs myths, texts, and manuscripts
- Reception of the medieval Ovid beyond Eurocentric approaches
Proposals should be submitted by September 15, 2024 at https://wmich.edu/medievalcongress/call.
If you have any questions, please contact William Little (little.447@osu.edu) and Rebecca Menmuir (rebecca.menmuir@lincoln.ox.ac.uk).
