Research
My research interests and supervision of postgraduates mainly cover the literature and culture of later medieval England (including English, French and Latin) and ‘medievalism’, the post-medieval reception and imaginative recreation of the middle ages.
In recent years my ‘medieval’ research has strayed as early as Anglo-Saxon and as late as Shakespeare. My 'medievalist' research goes from the mid-eighteenth century to the present, dealing with Engish, American and Australian material.
I also have an interest in modern Irish literature. Recurring themes in all this research include war and peace, emotions, masculinity and martyrdom.
