This publication is available in alternative formats upon request. Please contact Suzanne Childs, C.M.R.S. 614-292-7495 2 Greetings The May issue of Nouvelles Nouvelles is traditionally an occasion to take stock of the past academic year and to look forward to the next one. Despite the considerable budget cuts we suff ered, CMRS has had a very successful year. Our lecture series on “Living Dangerously” came to a fi ne conclusion last week with Hans Turley speaking on “’That Wicked Course of Life’: The Golden-Age Pirate and the Making of an Anti-Hero.” The various papers given during this series will be gathered together as a book that will, when it appears, become a valuable resource for those interested in themes of violence, marginalization, speculation, devi- ance and the like in the pre-modern world. As a collection, these papers will certainly demonstrate that life was just as dangerous – perhaps even more so! – in the middle ages and the renaissance than in any other period of western history.

  • University Distinguished Lecture
    University Distinguished Lecture Biographical Data Barbara A. Hanawalt King George III Professor of British History Department of History "Barbara Hanawalt is without question, the world's leading scholar of late medieval England," stated nominator Nicholas Howe, a professor in the Department of English at the University of California, Berkeley. "I think of her not merely as an eminent medievalist but as one of the crown jewels of the Ohio State University." Hanawalt is the author of four important scholarly monographs, one synthetic work aimed at general readers, co-author of a major textbook, editor or co-editor of seven additional books and the author of 45 articles. She was president of the National Association of Social Science Historians and is currently president of the Medieval Academy of America. Her research has covered different topics in social history, including the importance of gender relations, economic history and cultural history. Department of History colleague Professor James Bartholomew said Hanawalt has long demonstrated a considerable flair for reaching beyond the audience of professional specialists. "Her book, The Middle Ages: An Illustrated History, is a model of charm and wit," he said. "Her own research has contributed greatly to our understanding of diverse social, economic, cultural and gender-related topics," wrote Marjorie McIntosh, Distinguished University Professor also in the Department of History. "Her textbooks are widely used, helping to shape what students across North America are learning and think about the medieval period." Hanawalt joined Ohio State in 1999 as the King George III Professor of British History after teaching at Indiana University and the University of Minnesota.
