Thijs Porck is Universitair Hoofddocent middeleeuws Engels verbonden aan het Leiden Centre for the Arts in Society. Hij is een cultuurhistoricus van Engeland in de vroege Middeleeuwen. In zijn onderzoek staat de Oudengelse taal en literatuur centraal, alsook de wijze waarop men na de Middeleeuwen met dit vroegmiddeleeuwse erfgoed is omgegaan, zowel in de wetenschap als in de populaire cultuur. Hij publiceerde meerdere artikelen over de Beowulf, Oudengelse filologie, het werk van J. R. R. Tolkien en wetenschappelijke correspondentie. Zijn laatste boek is Old Age in Early Medieval England: A Cultural History (2019), de eerste monografie over de wijze waarop men in de vroege Middeleeuwen nadacht over ouderdom. Vanaf 1 januari 2024 leidt hij het ERC-project 'Early Medieval English in the Nineteenth Century [EMERGENCE]' (2024-2028)
