Associate Professor, History; College of Humanities and Social Sciences
As Associate Professor of Modern European History, my research and interests focus on Britain, British imperialism, architecture, and culture in a global perspective from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries. My first book, The Gentleman's House in the British Atlantic World, 1680-1780 (2015) explored the intersection of architecture, objects, and social status in the eighteenth-century British world. Recently I co-edited a volume At Home in the Eighteenth Century: Interrogating Domestic Space (2021) and I am currently working on two projects. The first is a book project that explores the cultural underpinnings of Britain’s imperial network by examining buildings, objects, design, and collecting in the late-nineteenth and twentieth century Anglo-world. A second is a book that focuses on two influential groups of writers, artists, and thinkers in twentieth century Britain - the Inklings and the Bloomsbury Group - to compare how they responded to the political, social, cultural, and economic changes of the modern world.
