Research interests

  • Medieval Croatian literature, cultural history, history of emotions, medieval religion
  • My research combines interests in medieval Croatian literature, history of emotions and popular religion. So far, it has largely focused on medieval passion texts, but now I intend to broaden it to cover a wider range of topics. As a member of the Center of excellence for Croatian Glagolism, I participate in the project of digitization of the Second Beram Breviary. In the later stage of the project, I will study non-scriptural narratives in the Breviary.
