Biography
My main area of specialisation is the history of philosophy, with a particular focus on women philosophers of the early modern period (c. 1650-1750). I have recently been engaged in two ARC-funded projects: a Future Fellowship project on the seventeenth-century feminist philosopher Mary Astell (project no. FT0991199, $541,000), and a Discovery Project on women and liberty in the early modern and enlightenment periods (with K. Green and K. Detlefsen, project no. DP140100109, $190,000).
