Antje Elisa Chan is a scholar of medieval English literature specializing in the manuscript culture of lay people in fifteenth-century England. She is currently working on a monograph tentatively titled Public Worship in Fifteenth-Century England: Middle English Pastoralia as Textual Witnesses, which categorizes and analyzes Middle English pastoral and catechetic texts on the Mass, creeds, prayers, virtues and vices. She is particularly interested in how this body of writing encouraged communal responsibility towards one鈥檚 neighbour and fostered societal health. Antje is currently editing a special issue of the Medieval Feminist Forum with proceedings of the 鈥淣ew Visions of Julian of Norwich鈥� conference, which she co-organized at Somerville College in Oxford in 2022. She is also the Book Review Editor for the Journal of Medieval Religious Cultures.
