“Nature goes to her coffer and opens it up. She has at least a million molds there, and she has very great need of them, for if she had only one form everyone would be alike that no one would ever be able to tell who was who or what their name was"

Transliterature Online is proud to announce new arrivals to the online store. Following an initial limited run of an assortment of button designs, including (Wave 1) "Mad for Margery," "Queer Gower," and "A Trans Middle Ages Matters," and (Wave 2) "Make the Middle Ages Accessible," "She Called Herself Eleanor" and "They Called Me the Loathly Lady Before I Was Nasty," more styles and items are finally coming. Wave 3 will continue to hit medieval crip, feminist, trans, and queer buttons, now featuring, "Medieval Disability Studies," "Medieval Transgender Studies," "Queer Medieval Studies" and "Feminist Medievalist." All proceeds from the sales will still go to funding important charities, starting with the Transgender Travel Fund run by the Society for Medieval Feminist Scholarship that brings trans scholars to important medieval conferences. This scholarship is important both for its symbolic and practical investment in a more inclusive future of the past.
After initial sales at the Medieval Congress in Kalamazoo, Michigan, we are doing a restock in order to send buttons via mail to those who were not in attendance. If sales continue to hold steady, in future conferences I will continue to try out new designs as well as some of the old, so everyone who wants to donate and get a button can. Likely, there will start to be designs exclusive to specific events, available only at the conference. Again, even if this is a temporary experiment, Transliterature is proud to be able to facilitate funding toward some great causes and working with you to build advocacy for important issues. Thank you for your investment and interest!
