Biography
I am currently working on expanding a digital map of sixteenth century Florence that has been developed as the DECIMA (Digitally Encoded Census Information and Mapping Archive) project; see Mapping Space, Sense, and Movement in Florence: Historical GIS and the Early Modern City (Routledge: 2016). My most recent work looked at historical backgrounds to the refugee crisis: Religious Refugees in the Early Modern World (Cambridge: 2015).
