frualeydisToday is the first day of our weekend event "Fru Ragnhild's Collegium". It is what would be calleda university in the SCA, focusing on theoretical, academic knowledge. We always have 5 lectures on saturday morning and afternoon. Unfortunately three of the intended lecturers cancelled on rather short notice so I had some trouble putting the programme together last week. Thanks to old reliable lecturers like Björn/Arnaud and Caroline/Elaine (pictures from last year's Fru Raghild's) and a brave new lecturer, Cis de Conway from the local SCA shire, Gotvik, who all came to my rescue we now actually have a programme which looks like this:
1. Aleydis: Population, country and town in medieval Sweden
2. Arnaud: Astronomy in the Middle Ages
3. Cis: Anglo-saxon dress 400-600
Lunch
4. Aleydis: Clothing as social sign in the middle ages
5. Elaine: Art as source for medieval and renaissance clothing, a source-critical approach.
(She used to be a PhD-student in art history before she got ill some years ago and this is her field.)
It all looks fine and dandy, except for one small thing: I haven't written my second lecture yet. I've written about the subject as you all know, but not enough for a 45 minutes lecture. I'm a afraid it will be too much a repetition of the lecture on clothes and gender I gave two years ago.
Well, Making that lecture is what I have to do today, though I'd much rather write on my new chapter.
