Lecturer
Classics and Ancient History
Trinity College Dublin
Ireland
Born in Limerick, I studied for my BA in Classics in Galway and my MA in Dublin (UCD). In 2006 I moved to Edinburgh to pursue a Ph.D. (awarded 2011), during which time I held a Marie Curie research fellowship at the école normale supérieure, Paris, and an Erasmus studentship at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. I returned to Dublin to take up the post of Walsh Family Lecturer at Trinity College Dublin in 2011. I work on the history and epigraphy of the Hellenisitic world, in particular mainland Greece, the Aegean, and western Asia Minor.
My research focuses primarily on the study of the relationship between city and king in the Hellenistic period. My Ph.D treated of the role played by the concept of freedom on the development of this political relationship between city and king. I am currently revising my thesis for publication. I am also co-editing the proceedings of a conference on the Hellenistic court recently held at the University of Edinburgh.
