Biography
I hold a two-year postdoctoral fellowship (Juan de la Cierva-Formación, funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitivity), and I participate in Therese Martin’s project “The Medieval Treasury across Frontiers and Generations: The Kingdom of León-Castilla in the Context of Muslim-Christian Interchange, c. 1050-1200” (funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitivity, HAR2015-68614-P). This projects asks why the treasury of San Isidoro was formed in the eleventh and twelfth centuries and how these particular objects came to be part of the collection in León. What stories are there to tell about its patrons/owners, cultural exchange, function, display and audiences?
