Biography
I have been at the University of Aberdeen since 1985, and am currently a Senior Lecturer in French in the School of Language and Literature.
My research interests focus on medieval French language and literature, particularly Anglo-Norman, and the historical development of the language. I have worked particularly on thirteenth-century vulgarizing theological texts and religious works written in the vernacular.
Teaching Responsibilities
I currently teach on courses in Medieval French Literature, French Theatre, and the History and Structure of the French Language. I also contribute to the taught M.Litt. in Medieval Studies.
