      I'm glad to see more people are exploring how fandom and academia, as far as they function socially, are much more alike than they are different

      Yep. Glad there are increasingly more "academic" medievalists who are making the point clear across many domains e.g. @heyouonline @KVMFinn @ProfCWhit @dorothyk98 @ricutz & many more

      Seriously, though, we ARE fans in a real sense, and pretending otherwise--i.e. that we have some sort of pseudo-scientific impartiality that somehow makes us superior--doesn't make our research any better, and in fact distances us further from the texts and culture we study.

      And, as @ricutz and others have pointed out already, it entrenches systems of privilege and assumptions within scholarship that roundly deserve to be questioned.

      Yes, there is a sense of us being fans but I also think we need to question what our engagements to this past is like. I don't know if I would say I'm a fan in the sense that is discussed in fan culture. I would say I have an intellectual investment.

      But I think the idea that we are fans is really complicated especially in the ways that @medievalpoc may be discussing. It's the "fans" who went after the BIPOC in fantasy b/c it upset their "fan" vision of the medieval past.

      How many weird and convoluted online convos have I had with medievalists whose affective engagement to some imagined medieval past means a complete white fragility/defensive when one points out it's a white supremacist symbol etc.

      We all have different reasons for being in medieval studies, but I think we need to be careful that the default assumption is an interest/fan devotion to certain medievalism/medieval keystones. I never finished Tolkien (his fiction, his articles I have finished all of them).

      He bored me. Why do we imagine that medievalist=medieval studies fan of very white cultural objects. I think I am more of a fan of things like what Nick and Joy discussed at Kzoo, Sylvia and Marsha's medievalism. Teresa Cha's medievalism. Anzaldua's medievalism.

      That is the important counterpoint and it's one that fan studies itself needs to grapple with. (c.f. @RukminiPande's excellent work).

      I write about medieval video games, but I don't think I am a fan. In fact, I have someone else play while I take notes. I watch a lot of youtube and read a lot of digital commentary, but I don't think I would describe this as me being a fan.

          Though, I may angle into the video game stuff more through a DH lens, and I have never said I am a fan of DH. I am, however, interested in platform structures and how they structure race, gender, sexuality, etc. I do love watching walk throughs, it's basically literary criticism.
