PhD Project: "Sacrilege and the limits of Community. Transgression and Borderlines in Spain and its Empire, 1492-1665."

My dissertation project consist of a comparative history of sacrilege and related ritualistic crimes in Spain and its empire during the sixteenth and the seventeenth centuries. Through the examination of inquisitorial files, literary sources and governmental documents, I explore the meanings of these transgressions of the sacred and the effects they had on the integration of minorities and the creation of borderlines between communities.

Supervisors: Professor Richard L. Kagan and Professor Gabriel Paquette. Johns Hopkins University.
