PhD projects

Elizabeth L'Estrange’s research focuses mainly on the art and culture of the medieval and early modern periods (c. 1350-1600) with a particular emphasis on illuminated manuscripts and on questions of gender in visual culture. Her research has also focused on the female gaze and methodological approaches to assessing women’s agency as viewers. She is also interested in broader questions of gender and sexuality in the medieval and early modern periods, in women’s writings in fifteenth and sixteenth century, especially the querelle des femmes, and in libraries, literary networks and translation.

Dr L’Estrange welcomes enquiries from prospective doctoral researchers wishing to pursue research in areas that overlap with her research interests, including women's patronage, book history, books of hours, and courtly visual and literary culture.
