Research Interests: The Psalms and their reception history; Lollardy; late medieval vernacular culture; medieval exegesis and reading practices; translation theory; history of education; intersections of theology, philosophy and literature.
Doctoral Research: My thesis examines how the Wycliffites applied their doctrine of Scripture in the practice of Psalm translation and interpretation, with a particular focus on contextualizing their revisions of Rolle's English Psalter Commentary. In so doing, it aims to illuminate the Wycliffite contribution to the medieval tradition of Psalm exegesis.
