    Questo autore esplora principalmente il tardo Medioevo, con un vivo interesse per l'architettura ecclesiastica e la storia della stregoneria e della magia. Il suo lavoro approfondisce come le comunità creano e mantengono un senso di cultura condivisa nonostante differenze e dispute. Esamina l'intricato rapporto tra pietà ordinaria e straordinaria e le dinamiche di collaborazione e conflitto nella creazione di strutture monumentali che simboleggiano gli interessi comunitari.
