There is some sort of overwhelming sentiment that the queer community is a modern trend. This way of thinking not only inherently limits the types of stories artists can tell but also invalidates the existence of many people throughout our history as a species. I wanted to raise the question, “Are the stories of historical minorities not worth preserving if they contradict the overwhelming sentiment of the time?” I believe that it is worth keeping the mere idea of these individuals alive, so we can cherish the memory of them in a time period that is more accepting. The premise of A Knight to Remember is simple; it is a queer romance set in the medieval period. It follows Olive, a woman who competes in a jousting tournament disguised as a male in order to win the prize money. Along the way, she unknowingly wins the affection of a spectating princess, Euphemie. Both connect over their mutual goal to keep living a double life in the public eye and eventually start to grow closer in private. My research on queer history had a deep impact on the creation of my project and inspired deliberate choices I made. I was captivated by pieces of existing queer medieval literature, like the 13th-century French tales of “Yde et Olive” and “Le Roman de Silence.” As homage to each story, I referenced each respectively by naming the main characters “Olive” and “Euphemie.” This project revolves around the appreciation of the lives and stories of medieval queer individuals. I made sure that it was present from all the echoes of plot points and names. My thesis is intended to be a love letter to bridge the time gap between these stories and a modern audience.
