Research interests
I am a historian of early modern Scotland, with particular interests in the social and cultural history of the Scottish Reformation. My previous work in this area has focused primarily on the local experience of Reformation (in the county of Fife), poor relief and the socio-economic context and impact of religious reform, and more recently on emotions history. Following from my 2022 micro-monograph on the emotional worlds of James Melville (1556-1614), I am currently undertaking a wider study of the role of emotions in religious conflict in sixteenth and seventeenth century Scotland.
