Biography
I predominantly work on Ancient Greek and Roman historiography, especially Thucydides and Sallust. I am interested in various aspects of these historians’ works, including their literary features, their relationships with their historical contexts, and their reception. But I am most interested in their political thought, especially their reflections on language and civil conflict.
Before moving to Peterhouse, I studied for a DPhil at St John's College, Oxford, titled ‘The Language of Revolution: A study of language change during stasis in Ancient Greek and Roman thought’. I am currently in the process of revising my thesis for publication. I am also writing a New Surveys in the Classics volume on Thucydides. I have articles published or forthcoming in journals such as Classical Antiquity, Harvard Studies in Classical Philology, Mnemosyne, and Arion.
