A Clerk of Oxford is a blog mainly about the literature of medieval England from the 11th century onwards. Since 2008, Dr. Eleanor Parker, a scholar of Medieval English literature from Oxford University, blogs about a variety of topics related to her main research interest – the Danish Conquest of 1016 – in medieval historical writing. In doing so, she also blogs about legends of English saints and religious poetry in Old and Middle English. While the blog is not necessarily intended for academics, it might still be a useful resource for hagiographic research as Dr. Parker’s aim is to provide sources and translations which are not already available online. In order to navigate you might browse the posts via the label “saints”. She is also active on Twitter, where she posts about all things Medieval and scholarship.
