My work focuses on the history of political language and political thought, particularly in seventeenth-century England. My PhD and first book were on the Levellers, and looked at the way in which this remarkably audacious network of activists and pamphleteers adapted and reworked the less radical thought of the parliamentarian cause which they had supported. My more recent and current work focuses particularly on the writings of the English republican writers of the seventeenth century, including John Milton, James Harrington, Marchamont Nedham, Henry Neville, and Algernon Sidney. I am working on a book on their complex and perhaps conflicted treatments of the idea of democracy, and have published several shorter pieces on them. I have an abiding interest in the reception of classical ideas in early modern Europe, which is highly relevant to this project, and I am co-editing the Brill's Companion to the Legacy of Greek Political Thought with David Carter and Elizabeth Sawyer. I am also interested in the gendered aspects of political texts and political thought, and hope to focus on this more in future work.
