My research interests primarily include the field of Jacobite studies. My thesis focuses on the political criminalisation and decriminalisation of Jacobitism throughout 1688-1788. Other interests include broader social aspects of the Jacobite movement, including court politics, material culture and the lives of the exiled Stuarts.
Aside from this topic, I am also interested in other aspects of Scottish history, particularly within the long eighteenth century and in Classical Studies with its significant influence upon later epochs in Scottish and British history. I hope to explore these connections in future research.
