Nice etymology nugget:

(from Latin fari --> to speak / talk / fortell)

Thanks to all who attended my paper today for #WRMGC2021! I'm so sorry that we didn't get through all of the questions - there was so much to discuss.
I'm giving a talk on Friday morning for @WRMedieval and I just finished my slides! (Still indecisive about the title though!)

Starting with my day with Boundaries of the Political Selves, and what better way to start than with @BasilAPrice's own paper! #WRMGC2021

Tuning in this morning to #WRMGC2021 for 'The Boundaries of Political Selves' & 'Body, Mind and Environmental Selves'. Really looking forward to it! Although I have to do a bit of dipping & diving in and out for other meetings.

Challenging the colonial movement of Arthurian tropes through the Global North Atlantic, but also their use in resistance against "whitening". There's a lot to digest from @Nahir_Otano 's brilliant paper.

Absolutely phenomenal keynote by
@Nahir_Otano for #WRMGC2021 , with so much to think about as regards to giants, race, and empire in the global, imperial project of Arthuriana. I was so thrilled I got to invite her to be our keynote.

Such a fascinating panel, exploring and questioning how masculine identity is constructed in romance, but also how romance authors invite their audiences to challenge the creation of male gender.

#WRMGC2021 panel on 'The Divine and Holy Self'
Enjoying hearing about the playful self-naming of early-medieval theologian Johannes Scotus 'Eriugena'
Eriu --> Irish
gena --> born
