Working with this supervisor

I'm especially interested in supervising topics on how the past is depicted in contemporary sources. How do historians construct recent events and local identities? How is power created through history-writing? I'm also interested in working with numismatics and material culture alongside written sources to create a fuller picture of the early medieval period.
