Personal profile
Research interests
My research focuses mainly on the history of ancient Indian Buddhism. More broadly, I am interested in Indian religious narratives, both literary and visual, and their function as a vehicle for ideas, a tool for religious agency, identity formation, and religious polemics. In approaching these themes my work implements philological, narratological and art historical methods. My source material is mainly in Sanskrit, Classical Tibetan and Pāli.
Office: Room 2.07, 3 Woodland Road (Department of Religion and Theology), Bristol BS8 1TB.
