About
I studied Classics and Ancient History at the University of Bristol, where I completed my PhD in 2013. Since then, I have lectured in Roman History and Latin at the University of Manchester, the University of Queensland (Australia), and the University of Roehampton. I joined the University of Cambridge in September 2022.
Research
My research interests include Roman emperors and political culture, Roman historiography, and classical reception studies (particularly in relation to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries). I am currently Co-I on the joint AHRC-DFG funded project “Twisted Transfers”: Discursive Constructions of Corruption in Ancient Greece and Rome (2020-2023).
Roman history and culture, receptions of Rome and ‘classical’ ideas.
