We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Cambridgeshire blog series, with an essay by REED grad associate Jenna McKellips. 'Immodestly in Mans' Apparrell: Queer Possibility and Tagging Gender in the Cambridgeshire Records' considers instances of cross-dressing in the Cambridgeshire records and argues for a more nuanced approach to tagging gender in electronic resources.
Jenna McKellips (she/her) is a digital indexer for REED and a PhD Candidate at the Department of English, University of Toronto. Her research focuses on queer virginities, asexualities, and genders in the context of late medieval English drama.
