Research Interests

My current research project examines sisters in early medieval England (650-1200) as part of the SFB 1167 sub-project "Feminine Charisma. Figurations of Macht and Herrschaft in England and France (700–1500)" led by Prof. Irina Dumitrescu.

I am also completing work on my first book project on Divine Conversation in Early Medieval English Literature, with a particular focus on the sermons and poetry of the late tenth-century manuscript ‘The Vercelli Book.’

My research interests include gender and power, the medieval family, Old English sermons and homilies, and translation studies.
