About My Research
By training I am a historian of the European Middle Ages. My research interests focus on issues of gender, religion, and art. I am currently finishing a book entitled Sensual Encounters: Monastic Women and Spirituality in Medieval Germany. It will appear in Columbia University Press's Gutenberg-e series sometime in 2008.
