Accepting PhD Students

PhD projects

I welcome graduate students working on any aspect of the visual and material culture, religious, social and cultural history of early modern Britain. This might include any aspect of domestic culture, the intersection between the visual arts and the Reformation, or material practices of everyday life.

I have previously supervised doctoral students working on:

Women and community in early modern Stratford-upon-Avon
Household religious practices in seventeenth-century England
The cultural heritage and material culture of Shakespeare’s England (AHRC collaborative doctorate with the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust)
The material culture of dining in early modern England
The cultural significance and meanings of beds in early modern English drama
Family portraiture and gentry identity in early modern England
