Description
This webpage coordinates and comments upon approaches to medieval texts as "multimodal"; designed for classroom use, with suggestions for further exploration and hypertext links to texts, illustrations, and related materials. Arranges the approaches in three groups: 1) Visual Narratives: Susan Crane, "Chaucer's Earth and NASA's Space Photography"; Tom Boyle, "The Bayeux Graphic Novel"; and Kathryn Vulic, "Reading The Tale of Sir Thopas as Text and Image"; 2) Unexpected Affinities: Vincent A. Lankewish, "Victorianists, Victorians, and the ‘Father of English Poetry'"; Lee Sheldon, "Modular Storytelling in Literature and Video Games"; Brendan Fitzgerald, "Millennials, Monsters, and the Middle Ages"; Christa T. Cottone, "'To Have of Sondry Tongues Ful Knowyng:' Spanish, Middle English, and Me"; and Kisha Tracy, "A Community of Grieving Readers: ‘The Book of the Duchess'"; 3) Creative Performances: Peter Sutton, "Translating Piers Plowman's Landscapes and Soundscapes"; Nicole Smith, "Crafting an Edition: From Manuscript to Print"; Christopher W. Totten, "A Trip to ‘La Mancha': Inhabiting Literature Through Games"; and Baba Brinkman, "Chaucer with a Beat" [video recording].
