Long abstractWe have arrived in Norway. On the trip I began Mary Woll-stonecraft’s 1796 Letters Written during a Short Residence in Swe-den, Norway, and Denmark (Broadwell, excellent edition) and have been inspired to write you real letters on real paper about our big adventure moving abroad and my new (first, real, per-manent) job. I am now officially associate (!!!) professor or the much more delicious title “førsteamanuensis” of English litera-ture in the Institute for Foreign Languages at the University of Bergen, Norway. The other languages in our department include French, Spanish, German, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian... both literature and linguistic sides. I have five other colleagues in English literature: total three for British, three for American (picture a buoy right in the middle of the Atlantic, demarcating the fields). No one has mentioned if medieval English literature was ever taught here before. Either it never was — or the institu-tional memory has been lost — or they want to forget — or they haven’t thought to mention whose shoes I am stepping into. Well, they are mine now.
