There is a lot now written on the #GlobalMedieval. This piece by Geraldine Heng would be one place to start: https://read.dukeupress.edu/english-language-notes/article-abstract/47/1/205/135791/The-Global-Middle-Ages-An-Experiment-in …

Hello all. Great questions. I can't summarize state of
#GlobalMiddleAges work now, but ever since my plenary at@MedievalAcademy 2017, I've been trying to work thru implications of hemispheric/global. (Bibliography was posted here: https://www.academia.edu/32340959/History_in_a_Hemispheric_Mode_Redrawing_the_Medieval_Map_-_BIBLIOGRAPHY …) I'm now inclined ...pic.twitter.com/BnERW1icE5

#ClimateHistory conditions worth looking at on a global scale. (See biblio in this thread: https://twitter.com/monicaMedHist/status/1030150007406522370 ….) In other words, there may be physical reasons to define the "medieval" period as having common characteristics. We can reclaim vocab.Monica H Green, PhD added,

Very interesting perspective re: climate change. Thanks! I definitely need to look into this more.

Gerry Heng addresses this in her early globalities article for LICO. She has discussed this both at MAA and MLA this year. This has then been part of the discussion for her and her work on Global MA since 2007. I would read and cite her.

Hi Dorothy. Gerry's 2009 essay in *English Language Notes* was already mentioned up-thread. I see several of her pieces on globality posted on her http://Academia.edu page (https://utexas.academia.edu/GeraldineHeng ). But I don't see LICO anywhere & have no idea what it means. Can you clarify?

Thanks. Those of us not in literature don't know this lingo. (And we historians don't call History Compass, "HiCo.") Here's link for those looking: https://www.academia.edu/28913418/Early_Globalities_Global_Literatures_Introducing_a_Special_Issue_on_the_Global_Middle_Ages ….

Hi all. Some fascinating links in this thread! Personally, coming back to the original q, I think that ‘medieval’ CAN be colonising if used uncritically, but sometimes we need to (critically and consciously) use commonly understood terms to try and have ‘global’ discussions. 1/

I think this is why Gerry Heng explains her use of early globalities rather than global Middle Ages. I would go ahead and read the pieces, she has regularly, consistently, and for a long time discussed this and the critique w/ people in other areas and later fields.

correction, Gerry and Lynn. Though I would also point out, as I have already tweeted my massive issues with the Past and Present intro. to Global MA, yes, I see a lot of premodern scholars not attending to these issues, strangely they cite Gerry's work but seem to ignore her pts.
