I am Associate Professor and Tutorial Fellow in French at St Catherine's College, Oxford. I specialise in eighteenth-century literature and thought, with a particular interest in authorial self-fashioning. My first monograph,Goldoni in Paris: la Gloire et le Malentendu (forthcoming with OUP) tracks the reputation of the Italian author Carlo Goldoni in France during his thirty-year career there, and after his death. I have also worked on anonymity, the digital humanities, eighteenth-century theatre history, and commemoration, and my latest project focuses on authorial posterity in the 1790s, particularly through the genre of the ‘dialogue of the dead’.
