I loved working on and indeed reworking this piece with @postmedieval.bsky.social, which remains the best venue for creative, risk-taking scholarship in contemporary medieval studies.
soon out in /postmedieval/! keep an eye out for James Paz's creative and critical translations!
This new postmedieval article of mine will blend creative translation with critical commentary, transposing elegies into riddles to compose more-than-human lyric voices which flow across boundaries of self and other, man and woman, culture and nature, internal and external worlds.
