Research Interests
I am a historian of religion and culture in Medieval Europe. I have previously written on Christian understandings of violence and approaches to peacemaking in Medieval western Europe. I have also written on the history of emotions, the history of papal reform and more recently, on the history of cities in northwest Europe
Currently, I am working on a monograph that explores the political and social dimensions of listening and sound production in medieval European cities.
I have also begun work on a global history of the color blue.
