I am a first year Ph.D. student at the University of Virginia studying
medieval English literature, and am interested in representations of the
Eucharist and of Christ's body in late medieval literature.
My recent research centers around the legal nature of Christ's transforming
body in the Charters of Christ, and the association of pearl, penny, and
eucharistic host in Pearl. I'm considering doctoral research that would
include an investigation of Arthur's eucharistic tribute to Gawain in the
alliterative Morte Arthure.
I'm glad to have stumbled across this list-it looks like a good one!
