Simone Celine Marshall

My PhD from the University of Sydney focused on Middle English Literature by women. Since then, my interests have developed, so that more broadly, I research how our understanding of the world around us is directly shaped by texts: religious, scientific, literary, legal, historical, political. Within my research platform, I have six programmes of research: Medieval Race, Geoffrey Chaucer, Medievalisms, Medieval Women, Medieval Literary Anonymity, and Medieval Manuscripts. The programmes overlap and interconnect, but each seeks to bring to light a feature or characteristic of how texts shape our world.
