Research interests

My research centres on medieval Spanish history, especially from 11th-13th centuries. This has focused principally on chronicle writing and the way in which medieval authors of historical narratives used biblical and classical sources to enrich their presentation of events. My other interests include liturgy, exegesis and monasticism, the Crusades and the early Italian Renaissance.
