Dr. Megan Welton obtained her Ph.D. in Medieval Studies from the Medieval Institute at the University of Notre Dame. After defending her dissertation, she taught medieval history and conducted research in London as the Arts and Letters Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Notre Dame (U.S.A.) in England. At Utrecht University, she will analyze the intersection between citizenship discourses and material culture in the early medieval world. Her wider interests include late antique and early medieval political thought, the formation and manipulation of memory and rhetoric, and how these concepts impinge on early medieval queenship.
