Medievaling was created by Dr Ashley Firth who completed her PhD in medieval history at the University of Huddersfield. Her research focuses on medieval gender and the Crusades. Formerly a university lecturer, she taught a wide range of topics from the Anglo-Saxon period to the Stuart era and is now a full-time author and historian.

It platforms medieval historians at all stages of their career, whether they be working towards a degree, a PhD student or even an established academic.
