| Abstract | In keeping with the IMC's thematic strand of 'networks and entanglements', this round table session is designed to focus on the topic of medieval battlefields, looking to some of the most recent aspects of battlefield studies as a way to highlight the important role of battlefields as liminal spaces that bring together topography, people, and objects. As such, we anticipate the round table session will generate a lively discussion about issues pertaining to, for example, battlefield geography, methodologies, and artifacts. Participants include Sophie Ambler (Lancaster University), Kelly DeVries (Loyola University Maryland), Daniel Franke (Richard Bland College of William & Mary, Virginia), and Michael Livingston (The Citadel, Military College of South Carolina). |
