As with the listowners, I am still recovering from Kalamazoo (late nights,
long flight). However, heeding the list instructions, I offer the following
information about myself:
I am a medieval European historian at the University of Hawai'i at
Manoa, where I teach not only medieval Europe survey courses, but also world
civ to 1500 (with a heavy emphasis on "worldviews"), history of Christianity
to 1300, and historical methods; I also teach graduate seminars in medieval
history.
My research interests are: popular religion, late Saxon England, and
elf-charms (all combined in the title of my recent book); magic, religion,
and folklore; liturgy and medicine; conversion, Christianization and
Germanicization in the early medieval period. Any discussion of these
theoretical subjects across time, or of the early medieval and Anglo-Saxon
period specifically, would be of great interest to me.
