4/11 Visiting Scholar in Gender and History Lecture - “Sex Workers without Sex: Thinking about Community and Connections in the Medieval Mediterranean.”
Visiting Scholar in Gender and History Lecture - “Sex Workers without Sex: Thinking about Community and Connections in the Medieval Mediterranean.”
Thursday, April 11th, 20244:30 PM - 6:00 PM Homer Babbidge LibraryThe purpose of the Visiting Scholar in Gender & History series is to bring prominent and emerging scholars working on gender with an historical framework to campus. All historical periods and geographical areas come within the purview of the series.
Susan McDonough specializes in the study of gender and sexuality in the Latin Mediterranean. Her first book was Witnesses, Neighbors, and Community in Late Medieval Marseille (Palgrave, 2013) and she co-edited Boundaries in the Medieval and Wider World: Essays in Honor of Paul Freedman (Brepols, 2017).
She is currently at work on a monograph exploring the role of sex workers as knowledge brokers in the port cities of the late medieval Mediterranean. Shifting attention away from their sex lives, this study examines how the women used institutions like notaries and law courts to stake out their community identities.

Know Before you Go! Interested in getting tested for STIs at the upcoming Sexual Health & Wellness Fair? Here’s what you need to know before arriving:
- This year, Student Health and Wellness is partnering with the CT Department of Public Health to test 200 students for chlamydia and gonorrhea - for free!
- If you’d like to be tested, arrive early. Fair attendees will be asked if they are interested in getting tested at the main fair check-in and given a number, which will secure their spot in line.
- Tests will be conducted via urine sample, so if you plan on getting tested, be sure to hydrate and do not urinate 1 hour before arriving.
- You will receive instructions after you’re tested about any follow-up, including how to access to results. Any positive tests will be offered FREE treatment at Student Health & Wellness. Eligible partner(s) of students who have positives tests will also be offered FREE treatment without the need to see a medical provider.
If you have any questions about the STI testing portion of the event, please reach out to our Advice Nurse Line at 860-486-4700.
