• Lecturer in GIS and Landscape History

  • Aug 2008 - Jan 2010

  The main focus of my teaching and research are the physical and social aspects of medieval landscape, the perception of them, and how religious, political and cultural conditions affect landscapes and societies of the past. Drawing from my background in historical research and from fieldwork experience in prehistoric, early medieval and post medieval periods, my objective is to look at and teach the medieval, early modern and modern landscapes in a more holistic way using a multi-disciplinary approach (using oral history, documentary research, desk-based survey and GIS mapping, and survey and fieldwork). In light of this I have developed a knowledge and expertise in the intersections between folklore and archaeology, and I am particularly interested in the relationship between landscapes and folkloric traditions; using folk belief to examine how societies functioned in past and present. I acted as the main course coordinator for two modules: an undergraduate course entitled “Landscape 1: Structures of Landscape 4000BC-1800AD”, and a Masters level module in GIS. The undergraduate module concentrated on the physical, cultural and social aspects of each era, with particular emphasis on the arrival of the Anglo Saxons, the Norman Conquest and the development of villages, and the role of minsters and monasteries in Medieval period. The role of folklore, magical belief and superstition in medieval and post medieval societies was also covered in this module. The MA Module consisted of GIS for Historians, training Masters-level students in using this spatial database to make sense of their historical sources. Show less
