Straight Outta In The Middle: Carnivalesque XXXVII

We're pleased to announce that the March Ancient/Medieval edition of Carnivalesque will be hosted right here at In The Middle, to appear roundabout the middle of March, just before the cruelest month that breeds lilacs out of the dead land and mixes memory and desire, yes, before that. If you've run across a weblog post in the past two months that you would like to submit for consideration, or even if you want to submit one of your own posts, email Eileen Joy at ejoy@siue.edu, or the carnival itself at carnivalesque@earlymodernweb.org.uk. Or, if you prefer, use the submission form at Blog Carnival.

Carnivalesque is not just for academics. We welcome perspectives from a variety of fields, especially history, literary studies, archaeology, art history, philosophy - in fact, from anyone who enjoys writing about anything to do with the not-so-recent past. You can nominate your own writing and/or that of other bloggers, but please try not to nominate more than one or two posts by any author for any single edition of Carnivalesque, and limit nominations to recent posts.
