The Order of the Hospitallers had a privileged role in Scandinavia. In spite of this, only relatively few scholars have worked with the Order’s Scandinavian history, and none specifically with its relationships to women. The aim of the present article is to discuss women’s important role as donators and benefactors, what kind of agreements they could make of the Order, and the importance for the Order’s planning and expansion of estate.

Warfare was cruel along the religious borders in the Baltic in the twelfth and thirteenth century and oscillated between mass killing and mass enslavement.
Prisoners of war were often problematic to control and guard, but they were
also of huge economic importance. Some were used in production, some were ransomed, some held as hostages, all depending upon status of the prisoners and needs of the slave owners.

As a means of revitalizing and continuing an institution established by Derek Lomax and Richard Fletcher,
we shall celebrate a symposium with the theme "Enemies and Friends" in Stockholm on March 14-16, 2016. This theme should be understood widely, and it is intended that it embraces courtly cultures, diplomacy, shifting alliances and military and social conflict; rituals of friendship, signs of enmity; patronage and exclusion, exile and execution; odium theologicum, polemic, competition, and coexistence within and between religious communities; charitas and supernatural threats.
Confirmed keynote speakers are:
Professor Simon Barton (University of Exeter)
Assistant Professor Maria João Violante Branco (Universidade Nova de Lisboa)
Professor Simon Doubleday (Hofstra University, NY)
Professor Maribel Fierro (Centro Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, Madrid)
We accept short proposals for 20-minute papers, containing an abstract (of about 300 words) and a brief CV, or proposals for sessions containing three such papers. These should be sent by October 30, 2015 to historiansofmedievaliberia@gmail.com.
The preferred language of the symposium will be English.
Notification of acceptance of proposed sessions and papers will be given on November 30, 2015.
Presenters will be invited to submit their papers for evaluation for a publication of the proceedings edited by the organisers.

This day-conference will encourage a discussion over the role of the bishop during the middle ages, engaging medievalists from different periods and geographical locations in dialogue with each other, as the various functions of a medieval bishop ‘on the ground’, rather than in theory, will be examined in their different aspect with relation to a particular place and time.
We shall discuss bishops and/as canonists, bishops and pastoral obligations, bishops and monasteries for the early medieval period; for the central middle ages, bishops and/in the crusades, and papal legates, and bad behaviour; and for the end of the middle ages, bishops and/in the court, and/in armies and, finally, the last three bishops of Uppsala.
We are pleased to note that we have, as speakers, one Angle, one Celt, one Celtiberian, one Dane, three (!) Finns, one Geat (Western), one Jute, and one from the lands of the Rus.
The Society for the Study of Medieval Languages and Literature is pleased to announce that it will award up to ten travel and accommodation bursaries for graduate students, based in the UK and elsewhere in Europe, who wish to attend the conference. If you wish to apply, please email the Executive Officer (ssmll@history.ox.ac.uk) as soon as possible.
The Conference will take place on 3rd December 2015 at the Royal Swedish Academy of Letters, History and Antiquity, Stockholm Sweden. Find more details and register here: http://mediumaevum.modhist.ox.ac.uk/dayconference
