Liz’s dissertation focuses on the copying, compilation, and circulation of French and Occitan lyric in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, and offers a critical reanalysis of the manuscript sources of troubadour lyric. Before coming to Yale, Liz earned a BA in French and German and a BMus in Performance from the University of Georgia in 2007. At Yale, she has completed MPhil degrees in French and in Medieval Studies. Her academic and teaching interests include medieval literature and culture, manuscript study, intersections of music and literature, orality and performance practice, the culture and history of Provence, the modern reception of the Middle Ages, and the nineteenth-century novel.

In addition to her dissertation work, Liz is conducting a census of the medieval manuscript binding waste in the incunabula collections of Yale’s Beinecke Library and compiling a catalogue online at flickr.com/beinecke_fragments

Liz is currently a lecturer at the University of New Hampshire.
