About

I am a postdoctoral scholar specializing in British and Scandinavian eighteenth- and nineteenth-century cultural history (see research interests below). 

I completed my PhD at NTNU in 2019, with a thesis exploring the impact of news mediation on one of history's most fraught political debates, namely the English 'Revolution Controversy' sparked by the French Revolution in the 1790s. I am now Postdoctoral Fellow within a research project exploring the historical and cultural roots of European state-sanctioned lotteries (https://www.ntnu.no/blogger/lotteryfantasy/). The project is funded by The Research Council of Norway for the period of 2022–2024.

My individual postdoctoral work examines debates surrounding state-sanctioned lotteries in Scandinavia, with an emphasis on the tensions between the moral and sociopolitical implications of gambling and the financial and political development of modern European states. Adopting a comparative and transmedial approach, I explore a wide range of historical and literary sources in order to determine how state-sanctioned lotteries were negotiated both by the governing authorities and a larger public in Sweden and Denmark-Norway (Norway after 1814) in the period 1750-1920.
