Accepting PhD Students

PhD projects

I offer PhD supervision in several areas of eighteenth-century British history, particularly cultural and social history and the history of gender. I welcome collaborations with external partners. I am currently supervising PhDs including ones on women landowners in Shropshire, 1760-1860 (Sara Downs), black women in eighteenth-century England (Montaz Marche), curiosity in the eighteenth century (Jenni Dixon), women in seventeenth-century ballads (Eleanor Sutton) and experiences of separation in East India Company families (Anna Dearden).
