I am a Research Associate on the ERC Advanced/UKRI Horizon Guarantee project, ‘MOWLIT: The Medieval March of Wales, 1282-1550’. Prior to that I was a British Academy Newton International Fellow in the English Department at the University of Bristol. My project, 'Charlemagne in Wales: The Transmission, Reception, and Translation of Charlemagne Narratives in Medieval Wales', studied for the first time all the Charlemagne material produced in Wales with the aim of elucidating how Charlemagne texts were transmitted, translated, rewritten and interpreted for their new Welsh audiences. In addition, it investigated the place of Welsh texts within wider British and European networks of texts related to the legend of Charlemagne in north-western Europe, simultaneously providing insights on their connections, shared common elements and idiosyncrasies. The results of this project will appear in my next monograph, provisionally entitled The Reception of the Charlemagne Legend in Medieval Wales, which is under contract with University of Wales Press.

I'm particularly interested in the circulation of texts in medieval Britain, especially in Welsh translations of French and Latin sources and how they provide valuable insights on cultural identity, literary and religious interests, and translation practices.

Before coming to Bristol I was Lecturer in Celtic at Utrecht University, where I taught Middle Welsh, Celtic literatures and history, and medieval literature. Prior to that I was an Alexander von Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Marburg hosted by Professor Erich Poppe. I'm a graduate of the University of Buenos Aires and I was a doctoral and postdoctoral researcher at the National Scientific and Technical Research Council in Argentina.
