About
I am an assistant professor of English at the University of Georgia, USA. I was previously an assistant professor of medieval and Tudor literature at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands, and I held a Killam Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. I received my PhD in English from the University of Toronto.
My work on manuscripts has been supported by numerous international grants and fellowships, including a Schallek Fellowship from the Medieval Academy of America and the Richard III Society, American Branch.
My research examines the literature and material texts of late medieval England in a transcultural context. My book project, How French Made English Books, 1380-1542, examines the importance of French to developing vernacular ideas of the book in late medieval and Tudor England. My current work includes a census of all French manuscripts known to have been in England in the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries and a reassessment of the role of migrant scribes working in England in the later Middle Ages.
