Emily’s research focuses on representations of women and the intersections of gender, sex, and violence in medieval texts. Her book project, based on her doctoral dissertation, examines representations of women’s desire and explores how eroticism works for and through female characters in Robert Henryson’s Testament of Cresseid, The Book of Margery Kempe, Geoffrey’s Chaucer’s Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale, and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Although her research interests typically tend toward texts from the later medieval period, she maintains a profound love for Old English poetry, most especially Beowulf.
