Simone Celine Marshall is a New Zealand academic,and is a full professor at the University of Otago,specialising in 15th century literature,in particular the afterlives of Chaucer's poems.
Marshall has a Bachelor of Arts from Victoria University of Wellington,a BA with Honours and a Masters with Honours from the University of Waikato. She completed a PhD titled The female voice in the Assembly of ladies:a 'volume without contours' at the University of Sydney. [1] Marshall then joined the faculty of the University of Otago,rising to associate professor in 2018 and full professor in 2022. [2] [3]
Marshall identified a previously unknown edition of Chaucer's works from 1807,and was invited to write a biography of Chaucer by Wiley/Blackwell. This discovery shows that Chaucer's life has been used to "uphold conservative white attitudes". [3] [4]
Marshall has received two Marsden grants. In 2009,the grant "A new paradigm of medieval literary anonymity" explored how anonymity is conscious feature of medieval literature rather than reflective of a lack of authorial individualism. Marshall found that anonymity was a literary convention used by marginalised people,including women,to express dissent. [5] Marshall was an associate investigator on a 2011 Marsden grant "The machinery of transcendence:unattended moments in the Modernist tradition",which was led by Professor Chris Ackerley. This grant explored the relationship between medieval traditions and Modernist aesthetics. [5]
In 2023,inspired by medieval works such as the Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels that reflect where they are from,Marshall initiated a collaborative project with Otago Art Society to create a "Book of Otago". Community groups,schools,artists and writers were invited to submit a page for the book about what Otago means to them. The pages were exhibited at the Otago Art Society during November and December 2023,and will be bound into a published book. [6] [7]
Marshall practices and teaches calligraphy,to assist students in understanding the skills required to produce the manuscripts they are studying. [4] Marshall teaches courses on monsters and monstrosity in medieval literature,medieval misogyny and those who fought against it,and also teaches a class in a surveying course,covering the Hereford Mappa Mundi.
