Anne Marie D"Arcy is a graduate of Trinity College Dublin, and has held lectureships in University College Dublin, and National University of Ireland, Maynooth. She was Associate Professor in Medieval and Renaissance English Language and Literature in the School of Arts, and former director of the Medieval Research Centre at the University of Leicester (2008-18). She is a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries (2019); a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society (2020), and a Trustee of the International James Joyce Foundation (2021). Her research interests lie in the areas of medieval and Renaissance Wisdom literature, medieval and Renaissance iconology and political theology; the patristic sources of Old and Middle English, and nineteenth and twentieth-century medievalism, especially James Joyce. She is a member of the editorial board of Annotations to James Joyce"s Ulysses (Oxford, 2022). In addition to articles and two edited books on medieval and Renaissance literature, she has published a major study on the grail legend, Wisdom and the Grail: The Image of the Vessel in the Queste del Saint Graal and Malory"s Tale of the Sankgreal (Dublin, 2000), and was the Principal Investigator of a landmark exhibition, `James Joyce: Apocalypse and Exile" in Marsh"s Library Dublin (2014-15), now online. She is currently completing Joyce and the Irish Middle Ages: Saints, Sages, and Insular Culture, which is the first monograph devoted to Joyce"s engagement with the Insular period, specifically the influence of Irish learning and artistry on Britain and the Continent from the sixth to the twelfth centuries. In the longer term, she is working on a monograph entitled The Artifice of Eternity: Marian Poetry from the Twelfth to the Seventeenth Centuries (Oxford, forthcoming), and a monograph on Chaucer and the Later Crusades. She has taught on a range of subjects: History of the English Language; Old English; Middle English; Renaissance Literature and Language; 17th-18th Century Literature; 19th Century Medievalism; Modernism; American Literature; Contemporary Literature; History of Ideas; Patristic and Medieval Historical Sources (patrology, exegesis, canonicity), and Text and Image.
