Projects

In my role as Capuchin Fellow I will research the largely unexplored history of the relation between the Capuchins and Great Britain from the early modern period to the present day, highlighting the significance of the Capuchin British experience for the study of the history of post-Reformation Catholicism. The project will include research not only into the province after its formation in the nineteenth century, but also into individuals from Britain who entered the global Capuchin order during the early modern period. This research will draw on my existing published research on the history of the English Benedictines and Poor Clares in the early modern period.
