CFP Medieval Classics (Re)Illustrated: A Medieval Comics Project Team-up (Hybrid) (9/15/2025; ICMS Kalamazoo/Online 5/14-16/2026)

Medieval Classics (Re)Illustrated: A Medieval Comics Project Team-up (Hybrid)

61st International Congress on Medieval Studies, Western Michigan University (Kalamazoo, MI), Thursday, 14 May, through Saturday, 16 May, 2026

Co-sponsored by Medieval Comics Project, International Arthurian Society/North American Branch, International Society for the Study of Medievalism 

Co-organized by Michael A. Torregrossa, Bristol Community College, and Siân Echard, University of British Columbia

There is a rich tradition of illustrating medieval literary texts that stretches from the Middle Ages to the present, and the comics medium has been an important contributor to this continuum. Medieval literature has long been popular with comics creators as the source for stories and characters, which have been adapted, appropriated, and/or transformed within a variety of comics published for readers of all ages across the globe. Despite the wealth of the corpus, there has been limited attention paid by medievalists to this work, with the notable exception of scholars in Beowulf Studies and Dante Studies. 

In this co-sponsored session, we seek, primarily, to unite the disciplines of Comics Studies and Medieval(ism) Studies at large to explore the history of comics adaptations, appropriations, and transformations of medieval literature for their value to our teaching and research. In addition, we hope panelists will also address how these comics can shed insight into a creator’s personal connections to the medieval past and/or their readers’ reception of the content either at their contemporary moment or as relics of our recent past. 

Possible topics for exploration might include specific texts like Book of Kells, Cantar de mio Cid, Canterbury Tales, History of the Kings of Britain, Lais of Marie de France, Le Morte Darthur, Nibelungenlied, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Song of Roland, Volsung Saga, and Yvain as well as the Arthurian and Robin Hood traditions. The work of cartoonist Jodie Troutman on Lit Brick also warrants some attention. Further insights into adaptations of Beowulf or Dante’s Commedia (which have been the subject of much prior study) would also be welcome. (Do check out expanding resource, the Medieval Comics Project Bibliographies at https://tinyurl.com/MedievalComicsProjectBiblios, for information on prior studies of medievalist comics.)

Please post paper submissions into the Confex site using the direct link https://icms.confex.com/icms/2026/prelim.cgi/Session/7242.  

Do send any questions to the organizers at comics.get.medieval@gmail.com. Submissions are due no later than 15 September 2025.

56th Annual Convention of Northeast Modern Language Association (NeMLA)

Philadelphia Marriott Downtown (Philadelphia, PA)

On-site event: 6-9 March 2025

Rationale

Interest in comics has steadily expanded as the medium has moved from a niche culture to mass media, and it is now well-attested that comics can serve as effective tools in the classroom for conveying information as well as expressing new interpretations of familiar stories and tropes. Consequently, we believe that many disciplines can benefit by using comics and related texts for teaching purposes. Our students are readily familiar with the conventions of the medium, and the interplay of text and image offers innovative ways to engage with course material.


Our focus in this session is on Medieval Studies and what comics can contribute to furthering the field. Comics based on medieval themes include adaptations of medieval stories as well as works that appropriate aspects of the medieval and transform this content into new characters or adventures.


In this session, we seek to build upon the work of medieval-comics scholars and share strategies for incorporating comics into the teaching of the various subfields of Medieval Studies, including art, history, languages, literature, and philosophy. We hope these ideas can help invigorate the discipline and bring more students into our classrooms. (As you plan your proposal, please see our growing resource guide for studies on medieval comics scholarship at https://tinyurl.com/MedievalComicsProjectBiblios.)

CFP Medieval Comics Team-Up: The Values of Comics for Medieval Studies (6/1/2024; Medieval Academy of America - Cambridge, MA 3/20-22/2025)

Medieval Comics Team-Up: The Values of Comics for Medieval Studies

Session proposed for The Medieval Academy at 100: The 2025 Annual Meeting of the Medieval Academy of America (Harvard University, Cambridge MA, from 20-22 March 2025)

Sponsored by Medieval Comics Project, an outreach effort of the Association for the Advancement of Scholarship and Teaching of the Medieval in Popular Culture

Organized by Michael A. Torregrossa

Paper Proposals due 1 June 2024

As any post-medieval adaptation of elements from the Middle Ages, the term medievalism encompasses a wide array of media, including comics. Searches on resources such as the Grand Comics Database reveal an astounding number of comics based on or inspired by aspects of the medieval past. It is a rich corpus produced, for over a century, by creators across the world, and one might expect a comparably robust tradition of medieval-comics scholarship. However, although medieval comics outnumber many other popular forms of medievalisms, they have received relatively little critical attention. Part of this may be lingering stigmas held against the medium, but it's more likely today that most medievalists just don’t know how to find and access comics. We hope to change that. 

This session is sponsored by the Medieval Comics Project, which was founded in 2003 as an outreach effort of the Association for the Advancement of Scholarship and Teaching of the Medieval in Popular Culture, and we seek to offer some resources and practices for how to make (better) use of medieval-themed comics in our teaching and research. 

We define comics to include cartoons, comic books, comic strips, graphic albums/bandes dessinées, graphic novels, manga, and webcomics, as well as adaptations of these into related media (like anime, collectibles, fiction, films, games, radio, and television). 

Proposals might address any of the following topics:

• Activities creating comics inspired by and/or reacting to the medieval. 
• Comic-like narratives from the Middle Ages.
• Comics that adapt aspects of the medieval (such as historical events or literary texts).
• Creation or sharing of resources to further scholarship on medieval-themed comics.
• Medieval motifs adapted and/or appropriated in modern comics.
• Pairings of the medieval with modern comics.

Additional ideas can be found at the Medieval Comics Project accessible at https://medieval-comics-project.blogspot.com/.

If you are interested in joining this session, please send to Comics.Get.Medieval@gmail.com a paper title, a paper abstract of about 250 words, and a short biographical statement (50-100 words) addressing your qualifications as a medievalist and/or comics scholar. 

Per the requirements of the organizers, presenters must be or become members of the Medieval Academy of America in order to present at the conference. However, exceptions may be given to individuals whose specialty would not normally involve membership in the Medieval Academy. Please contact MAA Executive Director Lisa Fagin Davis (lfd@themedievalacademy.org) with any questions about this policy. Details on membership classes and rates can be found at https://www.medievalacademy.org/page/Member_Rates. 

Please note that the Medieval Academy will offer some opportunities for funding to attend the conference. Details can be found on the meeting site at https://www.medievalacademy.org/page/2025AnnualMeeting.

Medieval Comics Project: The Basics

Introduction

The term medieval comics refers both to comic-like media from the medieval past (such as the Bayeux tapestry and manuscript illuminations) as well as to adaptations and appropriations of the medieval produced by creators of comics in the post-medieval world. This second group represents a fascinating form of global medievalisms featured in materials that include cartoons, comic books, comic strips, graphic albums, graphic novels, and related media (such as anime, books, collectibles, films, games, television programming, and toys) based on comics.  

My presentation will share some general links and some starting points to find and access some comics and engage with them within the larger context of the field,
