The Gender and Creativity Conference 2026, organised by the Gender & Medieval Studies (GMS) Group, will bring together scholars, researchers, and students to explore the relationship between gender, creativity, and medieval culture. Taking place at University College Oxford, United Kingdom, the conference will provide a platform for discussing innovative research approaches within medieval studies. The event is scheduled from 8 September to 10 September 2026 and will focus on how creativity shaped and reflected gender identities throughout the medieval period. Gender and Medieval Studies has long encouraged interdisciplinary research into how ideas of masculinity, femininity, sexuality, and identity were represented in medieval societies. This conference continues that tradition by examining creative expressions across literature, art, manuscripts, performance, religious texts, and historical records. A Platform for Medieval Gender Research The conference offers an important opportunity for academics and researchers to present new findings and engage with current debates in medieval gender studies. Participants will explore how medieval communities understood gender roles and how creative practices influenced social and cultural identities. Through keynote sessions, research presentations, and discussions, attendees will gain deeper insights into medieval approaches to identity, representation, and creativity. The event encourages conversations between different academic disciplines, allowing historians, literary specialists, art historians, and cultural researchers to share perspectives. Exploring Creativity Through a Gender Lens Creativity played an important role in medieval society. From illuminated manuscripts and religious artwork to poetry, storytelling, and performance traditions, creative works provide valuable evidence about how gender was understood and represented. The Gender and Creativity Conference 2026 will examine how creators, audiences, and communities interacted with ideas of gender during the medieval period. Researchers will explore questions surrounding authorship, representation, and cultural influence. Topics may include: Gender representation in medieval literature. Women’s contributions to artistic and intellectual traditions. Masculinity and identity in medieval societies. Gender symbolism in medieval artwork. Creativity and social transformation.
