Between Medieval Men is a radical new study of same-sex relations (both erotic and non-erotic) in the Anglo-Saxon period. David Clark's nuanced approach to gender and sexuality seeks to step outside modern cultural assumptions in order to explore the diversity and complexity that he shows to be characteristic of the period.

After completing his doctoral thesis at the University of Oxford, David Clark held Stipendiary Lectureships at Wadham, Brasenose and Worcester Colleges, before his appointment as Lecturer in Old English at the University of Leicester. He has published a series of articles in leading journals stemming from his doctoral work on vengeance and heroism in Old English and Old Norse literature. He co-edited and contributed to Old Norse Made New: Essays on the Post-Medieval Reception of Old Norse Literature and Culture (Viking Society for Northern Research, 2007). He is now working on a major study of male friendship across the medieval period.
