| Long abstract | When we first attended the International Congress for Medi-eval Studies in 2013, we had just begun to dip our toes into the expansive world of Medieval Studies. When we returned home we were so inspired that we both began extensively studying the Middle Ages and founded the Bemidji State University Medi-eval Club. Within months we had a solid community of medi-evalists and we felt at home. In 2015 at the 50th Annual Interna-tional Congress for Medieval Studies, we attended the “Ballad of the Lone Medievalist” panel hosted by Dr. Kisha Tracy of Fitchburg State University and Dr. John Sexton of Bridgewater State University. We were astonished by how many medievalists felt alone at their universities. Didn’t everyone have a colleague who studied medieval scholarship on their campus? The sur-prising answer was no. It was our understanding that the Lone Medievalist project, founded by Dr. Tracy and Dr. Sexton, began with the intent of creating a series of panels and publications to connect medievalists from around the world. We recognized the Lone Medievalist project’s need for a more substantial commu-nity outside of the short amount of time allotted them at con-ferences. We thought a good basis would be to create a virtual community that emulated what we felt on our home campus. Sarah then suggested an online hub which would allow medi-eval scholars to join together, share in discussion, trade syllabi, and connect for conferences. The next thing we knew we were having lunch with Dr. Tracy and Dr. Sexton and were exploring the idea further. We left our meeting with the go-ahead to get a website up and running for The Lone Medievalist. |
