Jane Bonsall

Jane Bonsall is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of St Andrews, working on the AHRC and DFG funded project, 'The Seven Sages of Rome: editing and reappraising a forgotten premodern classic from global and gendered perspectives'. As demonstrated by her forthcoming monograph (Magical Women in Medieval Romance, Boydell and Brewer, late 2024), her work explores gender, genre, and affect in Middle English romance, and her research interests include a focus on storytelling practice and modern reception of medieval narratives. Her work prioritises collaborative, inclusive, intersectional and supportive academic praxis, as demonstrated in her organisation of pre-review collaboration, workshopping, and mentorship in recent and forthcoming publications (e.g., Basil Arnould Price, Jane Bonsall, Meagan Khoury, eds., Medieval Mobilities: Gendered Bodies, Spaces, and Movements, Palgrave MacMillan, 2023, and Hannah Piercy and Jane Bonsall, eds., Reconsidering Consent and Coercion in Medieval Literature, Brepols, expected publication late 2024).
