      Yet the anthology implies Frantzen is correct. Buchanan's reading of a queer modernist novel titled Beowulf makes use of a palimpsest metaphor that figures queer people "writing over" the text of Beowulf and of lesbians queering the past by refusing "to take it simply as it is."pic.twitter.com/iE1jGT3YWi

      Buchanan contrasts this queer rewriting of Beowulf to modern retellings of the poem in film and graphic novels where Beowulf and Grendel wrestling naked, which Buchanan described as "unfortunately the case" in several adaptations.pic.twitter.com/XEhiT2wTeJ

      This wording suggests discomfort with a reading of the poem that emphasizes the nudity and homoeroticism of the two āglǣċan wrestling together--a moment open for queering. The "unfortunate" García and Rubín graphic novel does so by showing Grendel cum on Beowulf (not pictured).pic.twitter.com/UCEgBawkmq

      The collection's editors have been presenting it as a hip collection of queer and feminist approaches that will take on conservative politics and gatekeeping, yet few essays actually engage queer scholarship or even use the term "queer."pic.twitter.com/LeoriM4Ix4

      Beowulf itself is represented as a poem devoid of sex and especially of homoeroticism.pic.twitter.com/4v1qj7r1qJ

      Queerness and queer communities are presented as narrow, subcultural groups that are contrasted with "broader communities."pic.twitter.com/L4Nvqrzwor

      Most oddly, the introduction repeatedly transitions from discussions of same-sex intimacy to images of parasites and hosts. One would have hoped the editors would avoid such comparisons, given the history of the association of queer people with disease and infestation.pic.twitter.com/7Hv4y2pxdE

      There is simply little engagement with the recent history of queer scholarship in early medieval English studies. Most of the work cited is from the 90s (Dinshaw, Lees) and pathbreaking queer scholars in the field like @EileenAJoy are almost entirely omitted.

      David Clark's groundbreaking work on male-male intimacy in OE lit is missing from all but Mo Pareles' and Irina Dumitrescu' essays. Diane Watt and Lisa Weston's scholarship on queerness and intimacy between women in OE lit is entirely absent

      Most stunningly, the entire collection does not acknowledge perhaps the most important previous book in early queer and intimacy studies in early medieval England: Pasternack and Weston's Sex and Sexuality in Anglo-Saxon England.pic.twitter.com/RosviF9sIK

      Replying to @erik_kaars

      It is particularly awful since these were essays for Daniel Calder who died of AIDS.
