How else is she supposed to sell Germanic history to the academy? It fits nicely with an observation she made herself: > [Brunhild] appears unnaturally tall and pale in illuminated manuscripts from later in the medieval period; voluptuous and glowing in Renaissance portraits; pensive and windswept in Romantic-era prints. Well, this portrait, made today, says "yasss queen". Anyway, the article is structured as a sandwich, and if you skim past the "bread" at the ends, the "meat" is worth reading.
