Professor Katherine O Brien O Keeffe has dedicated her career to exploring the intricate nuances of early medieval textual life, delving from the smallest punctum to a comprehensive reimagining of the grandest humanistic inquiries. Through her skilled hands, the traditional tools of medieval studies, such as philology, paleography, and close reading, transform into a pivotal lever for unveiling the underlying worldviews that animated the creation of early medieval textual artifacts. The essays compiled herein celebrate and reflect the profound impact of Professor O Brien O Keeffe as a scholar and educator. They encompass a wide range of Latin works, including the writings of Prudentius and Bede, as well as vernacular prose texts such as the Pastoral Care, the OE Boethius, legal codes, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, and Ælfric's Lives of Saints. Additionally, the Old English poetic corpus receives attention, with a particular focus on less-studied works, including Genesis and Fortunes of Men. This diverse array of texts serves as the foundation for the volume's analysis of agency, identity, and subjectivity in early medieval England. United by their methodological approach, the articles in this collection boldly challenge prevailing wisdom and disrupt critical consensus on fundamental issues of humanistic inquiry, including affect and embodied cognition, sovereignty and power, and community formation.
