Morning Medieval Miscellany

This this Monday morning:

• A Corner of Tenth Century Europe discusses a seminar on “The Cult of Edward the Martyr in the Reign of King Æthelred ‘the Unready.’"
• Heavenfield has a post on Holy Week with St. Brendan.
• The Heroic Age has an update with ten new announcements of CfPs, new scholarly resources, etc.
• Quid Plura has a post on King Władysław II Jagiełło, who was King of Poland & Grand Duke of Lithuania back in the days when the Poles and Liths had their joint medieval empire. It seems strange to me that somehow we've forgotten that empire in the modern era (in America, anyway). When you think "empire," do you think Poland or Lithuania?
• Michael Drout posts his 5th grade play, The Council of Elrond. I'm surprised he didn't get a cease & desist order from Christopher Tolkien's lawyers delivered to his elementary school.
• Dame Eleanor Hull has a Middle English word puzzle she is offering for people to use in their classes.

Enjoy!
