My peer-reviewed journal publications (all open access) explore notions of African superiority, colonization and slavery (Intellectual History Review, 2023), Swedish climactic science in times of warfare (Etudes Germaniques, 2021) and the links between the afterlife and extra-terrestrialism in the early modern period (Annals of Science, 2020). I welcome inquiries and proposals to contribute to edited volumes and special issues. I have experience both in reviewing manuscript submissions and in helping colleagues translate articles, reports and research proposals. I am happy to help when I can!
