Research

As part of the FEATHERS project, my research investigates the secretaries of Queen Elizabeth I. By analysing scribal influence on the Elizabeth's English-language letters, my research explores the professional relationship between secretary and employer, analyses the Queen's authorship, and works to create a working definition of the early modern secretary.
