Erin Glunt
I joined the History and Renaissance Studies combined degree program in 2007 after graduating from Duke University with degrees in history and French. I am interested in late medieval and early modern Christianity, with a particular emphasis on the Reformation, especially in France. I am interested both in theology and daily religious practice. My orals fields are: Reformation Europe, Early Modern Europe, Inquisitions, Theology in the Age of Reform, and Late Byzantine Liturgical Art. My dissertation uses an affair of exorcism at an early sixteenth-century French convent as an overture to study early modern French Catholicism. Some of the themes I will be exploring include: convent reform, early Protestantism in France, changing demonological beliefs, and female piety. My dissertation adviser is Carlos Eire.
