Research Interests:

Roman social history, Greco-Roman medicine, Roman law, and the Roman novel. My first book, Roman Girlhood and the Fashioning of Femininity, is forthcoming from Cambridge University Press (2014). It seeks to correct the prevailing scholarly assumption that the Romans gave little thought to the consequences of an early marriage age for girls, and shows that a range of writers, from physicians and jurists to philosophers and poets, show an awareness of, and often an uneasiness or ambivalence about, the consequences of early marriage and childbearing.

My current projects develop my interests in popular morality and intellectual culture in the early empire. I am at work on an article about the uses of anecdote in the Historical Miscellany of Aelian, and on a study of the physician-patient relationship in the On Prognosis of Galen.
