Research Interests

Her research explores providential guidance in medieval texts, the role of saints as integration figures in European medieval societies, and gender representations in Middle High German literature. She also investigates the interplay between music and medieval encyclopedic works, such as Konrad von Megenberg's contributions in a European context.

The trends in her publications emphasize narrative structures in medieval epics, theological themes, and cross-cultural communication during the 12th–13th centuries. Her work often bridges literary analysis with historical and cultural studies.
