Uniting for the first time the concepts of #Medievalism & #ReceptionStudies this collection edited by Ellie Crookes & Ika Willis includes topics as diverse as #StarWars #RobinHoos & #Chaucer & #Victorian perspectives on #AnneBoleyn & the crusades & more

New paper out! In 'Beneath the Necron Masks', now published Aegyptiaca 8, I apply historical game studies methods to Egyptology rather than my usual medieval studies, and talk about how the Necrons of Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War reflect popular ideas of ancient Egypt in their game mechanics.

Thoughts, questions, and feedback always welcome :)
