Although critical consensus has considered Judas to be an archetypal representative of the Jewish population of the city, this article argues that the poem actually constructs the religious race of Judas as a strangely liminal one, shifting him back and forth between the categories of Jew and Christian. Drawing upon concepts from medieval critical race studies and work on Jewish-Christian relations, it examines how Judas’s racial liminality lays the groundwork for the narrative’s culminating anti-Semitic fantasy of effortless universal conversion; furthermore, it offers a critique of allegorical reading practices in medievalist scholarship, and underscores the need for deliberate distancing between the medieval text and the modern reader.","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86008102","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the author, Jewish heritage travel, whether medieval or modern, tells alternative histories which rely upon alternative ways of seeing and interpreting in the face of ongoing, chronic crisis. Just as the medieval travel narrative of Benjamin of Tudela lists Jewish monuments in Rome alongside Christian ones, modern heritage tours intersect with and deviate from mainstream historical narratives, highlighting the achievements — and suffering — of the Jewish minority. To examine medieval literature from this vantage point leads the author not only to construct a parallel archive of Jewish-authored narratives, but also to find surprising examples of collective identity, borne of trauma and the shared experience of crisis, in Christian anti-Semitic sources.","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81433454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Vita Haroldi (BL Harley MS 3776), a story about King Harold II’s life living in the Welsh borderlands after the Battle of Hastings, can be understood as an alternate temporality constructed as a response to a crisis. Specifically, this essay will read Vita Haroldi alongside Gerald Vizenor’s short story “Custer on the Slipstream” which details the resurrections of General George Armstrong Custer, the infamous US soldier who graduated bottom of his class at West Point in 1861 and was killed by the Oceti Sakowin and their allies at the Battle of Greasy Grass in 1876. This essay will not “i/Indigenize” Harold or early English people more broadly, but instead open up the productions of early medieval settlers to the gaze of contemporary Indigenous scholars, and offer a temporally sovereign theoretical approach to early medieval narrative.","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79097557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cluster’s operative definition of crisis, highlighting its early use to indicate a turning point in the progress of a disease, already links crisis to possible alternative futures: unlike a catastrophe — an event that is disastrous, irreversible, and final — a crisis is in process, its course and outcome undetermined. Or rather a crisis is experienced as such: although it’s not usually defined in this way, crisis is necessarily as much an affective category as an ontological one, a situation that allows for feeling fear and hope, and an experience of being oriented to the world by both terror and possibility. Borrowing from recent feminist and queer reconceptualizations of ambivalence to understand its bearing on experiences of crisis, this essay explores ambivalence in two Middle English romances — namely Amis’ ambivalence about the sacrificial killing of his children in Amis and Amiloun and Criseyde’s ambivalence about returning to Troy in Troilus and Criseyde — to explore its implications for medieval models of futurity.","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87740399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Central to Langland’s imagining is a conundrum at the heart of hospitality, the Latin root of which means not only guest and friend but also stranger and enemy. Within Unity, the allegorical figure of Conscience practices hospitality, welcoming others, yet attempting to set conditions for entry to keep his space morally intact. Unity is intended to be a refuge from the violence of sin, but with every act of welcome Conscience risks letting sin in. This essay breaks new ground by interrogating Langland’s representation of these acts of welcome in relation to recent hospitality theory (of Derrida and others) to illuminate how the satirical bent of the ending of Piers Plowman coexists with reformist idealism.","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76999465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the layered crises of pandemic, protests, and elections, the country turned toward vaccination and a new American government while at the same time fearing further death and destruction, as we witnessed higher than ever unemployment, skyrocketing rates of illness and death, and a violent invasion of the US Capitol. As sociologist Rodrigo Cordero writes, “in a way, crisis is the moment where we are compelled to ask questions: where are we, what is going on, what went wrong, how we can get out of here?” (2017, 1) For medievalists working within the university, an institution already facing an array of challenges in the wake of the 2008 global financial crisis, such questions have a particularly existential cast. Accordingly, we seek medieval resonance with the modern world: In the face of frayed communities and uncertain futures, we ask how the past thought about crisis, how medieval writers grappled with isolation, conflict, precariousness, and disaster. In line with recent projects such as The Decameron Project: 29 New Stories from the Pandemic, Why the Middle Ages Matter , and the recent issues of New Chaucer Studies: Pedagogy and Profession focused on trauma-informed and pandemic-era teaching, we explore what scholars the Middle Ages — historical moments riven by uprisings, usurpations, and plagues — have offer in our state uncertainty. we","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89059884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Her reputation has been the subject of so many lies and so much deceit that it is hard to imagine she will ever be vindicated, or indeed, that anyone’s words about anything could be trusted again. To remediate this hopeless situation, Florence takes an unusual step, forcing her many assailants to publicly confess their sins. What is more, she presides over this unusual confession as their confessor. This essay considers Le Bone Florence in light of the literary tradition of false confessors and untrustworthy penitents, examining how concealment operates within the sacrament more broadly. I argue that, within this text, the space of confession is one in which the truth can be heard and believed. Nevertheless, the resolution it offers proves all too precarious, because for a woman in Florence’s position, crisis is only ever one well-told lie away.","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74464000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to the prevalent understanding of the divine experience of futurity as an eternal present made famous by Boethius and The Consolation of Philosophy, the human experience of sublunar futurity is plagued by uncertainty, fear, anticipation, and even regret. In the face of what Lady Philosophy in the Consolation called hap, a puzzling and undecipherable confluence of events in the future, the human condition is necessarily one of radical uncertainty. This essay considers how Chaucer imagines Criseyde in the grip of a hap whose outcome the readers of his poem knew well, but which none of his characters could have known, the fall of Troy. Interestingly, the Middle English word for “future” occurs for the first time in this poem (outside of Chaucer’s translation of Boethius) in two speeches of Criseyde.","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75827908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reading poet John Gower’s “The Jew and the Pagan” from the Confessio Amantis and his close contemporary Geoffrey Chaucer’s the Prioress’s Tale as in dialogue with one another, I ask how to make sense of the logic of these two tales that espouse pity and mercy and enact violence and cruelty. I argue that in these narratives we can see Gower and Chaucer explore the relationship between pity and violent justice, and, in the process, we can see how the tales enact a strategic essentializing of Jews as unjust, pitiless, and unpitiable to justify antisemitic violence. Study of these two texts together, then, can help both to shed light on the perennial question of authorial intention in the Prioress’s Tale and also the importance of pity in studying long histories of antisemitism.","PeriodicalId":40762,"journal":{"name":"Exemplaria Classica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82473708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
