And last, by way of #Introduction ... here’s a link to an article I wrote for a blog, which talks about one of the classes I like to teach: Tolkien’s Medieval English Sources. It’s about #Tolkien , The #LordOfTheRings, the #GawainPoet , #Shakespeare , #AMidsummerNightsDream , these weird #medieval creatures called #woodwoses , and more:

Here’s a picture and link to my most recent publication, a chapter in Becoming the #PearlPoet , edited by Jane Beal. It’s about the question of who might have written the #Pearl and #Gawain poems, and what we might say about him/her with the limited information we have:

(Yes, it’s an expensive academic book: see if your library has a copy.)

Here’s a link to my book, The #GawainPoet and the 14th-Century English #Anticlerical Tradition, from Medieval Institute Publications. It’s about #medieval #priests behaving badly, and how lots of people, including the author of the poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, criticized and made fun of them:

Hi! My name is Ethan. I live in #BrooklynNY. I’m an #English professor at The King’s College, where I teach all kinds of #writing and #literature, from #Shakespeare to Russian novels to Southern lit. Most of my published writing is about #medieval literature, namely from 14th-century England (#Chaucer, the #GawainPoet, #Wyclif, etc.). I also like to write #fiction. 1/4

Today, Elon Musk just reinstated the #Twitter account of #RonWatkins , former administrator of 8chan / 8kun, who played a major role in spreading the #QAnon conspiracy theory, up to the point of possibly writing posts as Q himself.
In case you're looking for a reason to feel good about your switch to #Mastodon.

This is not a story about Islamophobia or trigger warnings or what material is appropriate to show in an art class. It’s a story about how expendable adjunct professors are, and how non-faculty deans who have no commitment to academic freedom have gained too much power in colleges and universities.

Today is January 6, the Feast of Epiphany, when Christians around the world celebrate the Three Magi visiting Baby Jesus and bringing him gifts.
In America, we also remember it as Insurrection Day, when a group of deluded Christians decided to profane one of their holiest days and worship a false orange god.

I’m celebrating #NewYearsDay the traditional way — by finally fulfilling my year-long obligation to let the giant Green Man who lives in the chapel down the road take a swing at me with his axe.

On New Year’s Eve, the last day of Sir Gawain’s stay at Bertilak’s castle, Lord Bertilak hunts an elusive fox named Reynard — a reference to a trickster character from a popular series of medieval beast tales.
I assume Reynard is also the inspiration for the talking fox in the Green Knight movie, which isn’t named and which Bertilak captures and releases, so it can warn Gawain to run from his fate.

My theory: the day was so holy and somber, the #GawainPoet took it for granted that no one would be feasting, hunting, or playing games then, so he simply left it out of the poem and fast-forwarded to the start of Gawain and Bertilak’s exchange game. But who knows [shrug emoji].

It’s December 28th, the Feast of the Holy Innocents, or #Childermas which commemorates King Herod’s murder of children in his attempt to find the Christ child.
For scholars of the #GawainPoet this is the infamous “missing day” from the poem “Sir Gawain and the Green Knight” … Lord Bertilak feasts for three days starting at Christmas, then hunts for three days, then suddenly it’s New Year’s Day. It’s not possible that the poet, who was obsessed with numerology, lost count. So what happened? 1/2
