Personal profile
Research interests
I am a PGR at the University of Manchester undertaking a thesis entitled: Resistance to inquisition in the double towns of Languedoc, 1229-1330. My research focuses on the intersection of political, religious and urban history in medieval Languedoc (France). I am particularly interested in the impact of religious institutions on political narratives, urban identities and collective punishments. My wider research interests include heresy and inquisition, urban history, urban theory and anthropological approaches to pre-modern economics.
