been thinking more about this. I think it's super good & moves discussion in a productive direction. I've never advocated throwing out all scholarship on Crusades (despite accusations to the contrary). We should be aware of its sometimes colonial subtext though. #medievaltwitterhttps://twitter.com/homophonous/status/946763848522043394 …

If we threw out everything written by a sexist we would have practically no editions, pre-70’s scholarship etc. (and of course few medieval sources) So yeah, use it, but be aware of the gendered assumptions.

As someone who does editing and particular the issues around digital editing, we can discuss the entire ways scholarly editions have also a history of excluding, erasing, etc. The archivists and librarians are so much clearer about this. Archives are always political.

Likewise, how is it going to break new ground if they cannot address usually backward looking ideologies? How is that ever going to be generative and fantastic scholarship?
