Morning Medieval Miscellany

Today is the last day of the school year for my children. Pray for me. After praying, here are some things you should be reading:

• The Anglo-Saxon Narrative Poetry Project has a bit from Juliana (ll. 105-47)
• Gearwor has lines 260-320 of Beowulf, in Old English.
• Jonathan Jarrett has forgotten more about ancient and medieval coins than I'll ever know.
• Getting Medieval has her new book cover, with an image I think might end of being the wallpaper for many a female medievalists computer. Why is Crispin so absent-mindedly stabbing the ground?
• Hammered Out Bits discusses the Norse in Canada.
• Wombat's World discusses branding oneself as a medievalist, and she has a riddle, too.
• The Heroic Age has an update with some CfPs and such.
• A Stitch in Time has an image of a 14th-century burial garment.
• Heroic Dreams asks for help identifying another medieval castle.
• Steven Till discusses Google tools for exploring medieval history.
• Eileen Joy posts her paper, "The Light of Her Face Was the Voluptuous Index of a Multiplicity of Guthlacs: Desire, Friendship, and Incest in the Lives of Saint Guthlac." h/t In the Middle.
• Steven Hart talks about Simon Armitage's documentary of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.
• Japes for Owre Tymes has a post on Archie and one on Blondie.
• Old Norse News points us to an Old Norse course at the University of Limerick.
• News for Medievalists announces that the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies at UCLA is holding a conference this week on “Mapping Medieval Geographies: Cartography and Geographical Thought in the Latin West and Beyond, 300-1600.”
• Isis at Medieval Silkwork announces that her thesis is finished, and hints at possible English-language publication.

Also, a new medieval blog, Ruff Notes, has made its maiden post. Update blogrolls and RSS feeds accordingly.
