Carolyne Larrington is Professor of Medieval European Literature at The University of Oxford, and a Fellow of St John's College. She is the author of Brothers and Sisters in Medieval European Literature (York Medieval Press, 2015) and editor, with Frank Brandsma and Corinne Saunders, of Emotions in Medieval Arthurian Literature (D. S. Brewer, 2015). This seminar paper, 'Thinking About Feeling: Text, Emotion and Audience in Middle English Secular Literature', was delivered at The University of Western Australia on 22 November 2016. Why, how and how far, it asks, can or should we assimilate the study of literature in medieval secular texts to the 'history of emotions' approach?

Carolyne Larrington, Professor of Medieval European Literature at the University of Oxford, talks about watching and writing about HBO’s Game of Thrones as a medieval scholar. She explains some of the medieval history and literature from which George R. R. Martin chiselled the building blocks for the construction of his imaginary world. Game of Thrones has now become the most frequently streamed or downloaded show in TV history. Carolyne suggests some reasons for its enormous international success as the medieval fantasy epic for the twenty-first century, and undertakes a little speculation on how the show might end.
