Long abstract | One might argue that we hardly need another plea for more materiality in medieval studies:it's a buzz topic at medievalist conferences; the first issue of postmedievalwas devoted to it; and prominent members of the BABEL Working Group have been thinking with Bruno Latour, Jane Bennett, Bill Brown,and Graham Harman for years. And yet, the idea that agency is always an interaction, a network in which any element—not just what we tradi-tionally call human subjects, but also non-human ob-jects—can be alive, active and cognizantstill sounds mad to the medievalist mainstream and to most of the general public.The subject-object distinction is one of our most basic patterns of thought and not easily displaced by aca-demic fashion. So I will sound hopelessly belated and to-tally obvious to some, and crazily airy-fairy and non-sensical to others, when I now point out five things that I, as a literary and cultural historian,have learned so far fromstudying materiality. |
