    This proposal calls for interdisciplinary and other advances to the study
    of medieval literature and language with a focus on violence and gender,
    especially those studies that involve: the body; witchcraft; semiotics;
    pain and pleasure; sex and spirituality; love; or, education. While
    textual studies are not discouraged, theoretical and synthetic approaches
    are preferred. Three or four 15-20 minute presentations will be selected.
