Read Yourself
Centered on the opening scene of reading staged by Giorgio Agamben in his study of reading machines, The Open: Man and Animal, this article considers how Agamben’s own messianic reading of an illuminated page from a medieval Ashkenazi Bible (Biblioteca Ambrosiana MSS B 30–32) erases the entangled biopolitical histories of medieval Ashkenazi Jews and their Christian sovereigns. What happens if we read the distinctive animal-headed Jews peopling me…
Medievalism
Definitions of key words and terms for the study of medievalism. The discipline of medievalism has produced a great deal of scholarship acknowledging the "makers" of the Middle Ages: those who re-discovered the period from 500 to 1500 by engaging with its cultural works, seeking inspiration from them, or fantasizing about them. Yet such approaches - organized by time period, geography, or theme - often lack an overarching critical framework. This…

Doing dead time for the sovereign
This essay explores the fabrication of the concepts of event and archive through the notion of dead time. It first unfolds this notion of dead time as a critical concern of the German film maker, Harun Farocki, in his video entitled, Ich glaubte Gefangenen zu sehen (I thought I saw prisoners 2001). It then locates the historical constitution of dead time in Jeremy Bentham's panopticon. I trace how Bentham linked dead time intimately with sovereig…

The Shock of Medievalism
In The Shock of Medievalism Kathleen Biddick explores the nineteenth-century foundations of medieval studies as an academic discipline as well as certain unexamined contemporary consequences of these origins. By pairing debates over current academic trends and issues with innovative readings of medieval texts, Biddick exposes the presuppositions of the field of medieval studies and significantly shifts the objects of its historical inquiry.Biddic…
Women and Credit in Pre-Industrial and Developing Societies
The active role of women in the labor force is not limited to recent decades, or even to the last century. As William Chester Jordan amply demonstrates in Women and Credit in Pre-Industrial and Developing Societies, women in premodern times played an integral part both as a source of labor and as participants in lending and borrowing. In this wide-ranging and provocative study, the author assesses the overall significance of women's work in medie…
Alienated Minority
This narrative history surveying 1000 years of Jewish life, integrated the Jewish experience into the context of the overall culture and society of medieval Europe. It presents a new picture of the interaction between Christians and Jews in this tumultuous era. Alienated shows what it meant to be a Jew in Europe in the Middle Ages. The story begins in the 5th century, when autonomous Jewish rule in Palestine came to a close, and when the papacy, …
Genders, Bodies, Borders
Decolonizing the English Past
Historians, anthropologists, archaeologists, and sociologists are accustomed to categorizing the inhabitants of the rural farming households of medieval England as peasants without questioning the disciplinary implications of imposing such a category on historical subjects. Foundational categories, such as the worker, the peasant, the woman, become so familiar that they appear natural and divert us from studying the historical and power-charged p…

The Other Economy
While the cereal agriculture of medieval Europe has been studied exhaustively, the pastoral resources and livestock husbandry of medieval estates have been seriously neglected. Kathleen Biddick's examination of one estate, Peterborough Abbey, during several decades before and after 1100 and the first decade after 1300, brings a new balance to the subject of the medieval economy. Her pioneering methodology and the conclusions she reaches will inte…
People and Things
Debate over the rise of agrarian capitalism in Europe has established the historiographic chronology, locus, and conceptualization of European development. Proponents of contending schools (the 'commercial' or the 'political') have focused on the late medieval through early modern period in England as the crucial time and place of the transformation but argue whether agrarian capitalism derived from economic or political structures (Ashton and Ph…

Missing Links: Taxable Wealth, Markets, and Stratification among Medieval English Peasants Evidence for economic and social stratification among English medieval peasants confronts historians at every turn. By the end of the thirteenth century between one third and one half of English villagers worked less than three acres of land. Some thirteenthcentury households lived in larger houses equipped with barns; others lived in one room cottages. Soc…
Medieval English Peasants and Market Involvement
This paper uses a taxation assessment to analyze the relations between taxable peasant wealth and regional marketing geography. The results show cashcropping patterns for different grains and livestock. The selectivity of market involvement poses broader questions concerning economic vulnerability at the household and community levels among the English peasantry, and strategies used to contain vulnerability

Quantifying Continuous Lesions and Fractures on Long Bones
A system of recording has been designed to facilitate the comparison and quantification of features observed on extremity long bones from archaeological faunal assemblages. The system, which is based on vertical and polar coordinates, generates locationally accurate, repeatable, computerizable and statistically analyzable data. It is currently being employed in the analysis of Bronze Age and Iron Age mammalian material from the Fengate site, Engl…
