About Me

I primarily work on the Anglo Saxon period of England and look at migration and cultural exchange and how this is represented in written and material evidence.

  • Early Germanic migration and how the first settlers and conquerors set up states in the 6th to 8th centuries.
  • Viking and Anglo Saxon conflict in the 9th to 11th centuries, and how this is represented in contemporary history writing.

I also work on book history, and have written on manuscripts across the medieval period, including early charters, the magna carta, late medieval manuscript production across Europe.
