I am interested in the intellectual history of the academic disciplines of anthropology, folklore, ethnology, and the study of religions and how theories and views of culture have been "applied" differently to indigenous peoples and to peoples in European/Euro-diasporic countries and regions. I am interested in re-framing "folklore" as indigenous knowledge and TEK and spiritual connection to place.
My research interests are in the area of traditional knowledge systems/cosmologies as well as new and emergent religious movements, including contemporary Paganism in the Irish context.
