A (belated) cfp for #IMC2027 FORGET THE VIKINGS: Other raids, raiders, & raiding practises of the Early Medieval Period Read below for details, and if you're interested (or know anyone who might be), please submit your proposal of 150 words to the attached e-mail (also in alt text) before 1/9/26
A Call-for-papers for IMC 2027 which reads: 'Forget the Vikings! CFP: Other raids, raiders, and raiding practises of the Early Medieval Period There are good reasons why Scandinavian raiders - or ‘Vikings’ - occupy a much-coveted space in popular perceptions of early medieval warfare. But enough about them. What about everyone else? This CFP is seeking submissions from scholars interested in exploring other, non-Viking raiding groups from c. 400 - 1100. This could include (but is not limited to): Avars, Huns, Hungarians, Slavs, Frisians, Saxon and Frankish pirates, Saracens, Welsh and Irish cattle-rustlers, Balts, Oesellians, Narentanians, Dál Riatans, as well as the military activities of major hegemonies such as the Carolingians, Ottonians, West Saxons, Byzantines, even Normans, and so on. Chiefly, this is to fashion some new notions of how identity, political practice, and belonging were fostered within raiding communities. Of particular interest would be any papers keen to explore how other, non-Viking groups used raiding as part of regular military affairs. Analogies and comparisons with Viking studies are also welcome, if they are used to shine a light on lesser-known groups. Like the Vikings, many other communities engaged in more than just raiding, so explorations of trade, exchange, and other political dynamics alongside raids, would be ideal. Please send proposals (150 words or less) to: alexharvv@gmail.com before 1/9/26'

After the success of the 2026 sessions, and because fragments never rest, please have a look at our #medievalfragments session for #IMC2027! We are open to any type of fragments, from anywhere.. get in touch!
After two years of bringing Fragmentology to the IMC, we would like to invite expressions of interest for 2027. Fragments, ever present across a great number of materials, are unique and tantalising windows to the past. Surviving as insertions in later textiles, in later buildings or as parts of bindings in manuscripts, fragments offer us layers of meaning: what were they, originally? What was their original purpose? And their later purpose? How have they survived? We understand fragments as physical pieces of any material, from anywhere during the Global Middle Ages. Some suggested topics are: Manuscript fragmentology: collections of or individual fragments; selling and acquiring fragments; palaeographical and codicological analysis of fragments. Any medieval fragments: Including but not limited to archaeological, architectural, textile, manuscript, incunabula and textual fragments. Meaning, lives and usage: reconstructing the original object; the meaning of the original and of the fragment; original and later life and use of the fragment; collectors and collecting. Methodology: Methods and techniques to work with fragments, manuscript or otherwise, including digital methods and digital projects. Please send us a short abstract (c. 300 words) and CV to Dr Manuel Muñoz García (manuel.munoz-garcia@durham.ac.uk) no later than September 4. We look forward to hearing from you!

Do you study medieval manors? Do you want to speak at @imc-leeds.bsky.social? Then we have the Call for Papers for you! Medieval Manorial Research: Community in the Manor. We welcome researchers of all disciplines and career stages. Deadline 4th September 2026. #IMC2027 #Skystorians #Medievalsky
Call for papers poster for IMC 2027. From juries to tithing-groups, from haywards to cowherds, from the lord’s steward to the harvest workers in the field: the institution of the manor played a key role in shaping rural medieval communities. Research into such populations has traditionally looked to court rolls, accounts and surveys to understand how ordinary people lived their lives. Yet, the scale and complexity of manorial documentation preserved in modern archives presents a significant challenge and much remains critically under-studied. At the same time, other methodologies incorporating archaeological, landscape, and material culture evidence have much to contribute to our understanding of medieval manorial communities, although multi-disciplinary approaches remain under-explored. We would like to invite papers from researchers who work with manorial documents, either as a means of understanding medieval life and community, or as archival objects in their own right. We also welcome papers focused on non-documentary source bases, comparative studies combining material and documentary evidence, or studies comparing manorial communities across a broad chronological and geographical range. If you research the medieval manor, we would like to hear from you! Approaches to communities may include (but are not limited to): Daily peasant life Manor courts, custom, customary law Lordship and seigneurial agency in the manor Communities in the landscape Manorial material culture The use and materiality of manorial documents in the archive Please send a title and abstract of no more than 250 words, and a short biography including name, institutional affiliation, and email address to jenni.lane@york.ac.uk and samuel.riding@history.ox.ac.uk. The deadline for proposals is Friday 4th September 2026. We welcome proposals from researchers in any discipline and at all career stages. Please indicate in your submission whether you intend to present virtually or in-person.

What made a medieval self? CFP, Leeds #IMC2027, July 5-8: ‘Constructing Selves, Constructing Communities’. We would love to hear from graduate students and early career researchers who may like to join us at @imc-leeds.bsky.social! See CFP for more info. Abstracts due September 7 #medievalsky
Call For Papers: IMC Leeds 2027 Constructing Selves, Constructing Communities What made a medieval self? Augustine’s noverim me, noverim te (“May I know myself; may I know You”) suggests that knowing oneself depended upon relationships with both God and other people. Taking this insight alongside Paul Ricoeur’s distinction between idem (sameness) and ipse (selfhood), this panel asks how medieval people negotiated selfhood through their relationships with communities, institutions, and the divine. This panel aims to explore how selves and communities were imagined, enacted, negotiated, and transformed through material culture, texts, language, and social practice. We are particularly interested in the significance of belonging, memory, and authority in shaping both individual and collective experience. Papers may consider, among other themes: • Communities of belonging: • Embodied and material expressions of selfhood • Texts, rituals, and discourse: how rhetoric, narrative, images, and language mediated relationships between individuals, communities, and the divine. • Authority, spaces and social order: how hierarchy, sacred or social spaces, exclusion, and reputation structured medieval selves and communities. We welcome interdisciplinary approaches from across medieval studies. We invite submissions of a 150–250 word abstract, accompanied by: a paper title; a brief personal biography including your current institutional affiliation (if any) and academic title (if any); your full contact details (email and phone); any equipment/accessibility requirements and scheduling requests; and whether you intend to participate in person or virtually. Submissions must be sent to ceraejournal@gmail.com by 11:59 PM (GMT) Monday 7 September 2026. All submissions will be reviewed by the Ceræ Committee. Decisions will be communicated to all applicants within 5 days of the deadline.
