Culture, History & Language
I am a historian of Southeast Asia, specialising in premodern Indonesia. I research the inscriptions and manuscripts of the archipelago, to find new ways of understanding the region's peoples. I teach Indonesian language and Southeast Asian history. I have a particular fascination with how the practice of history varies across different cultures. I am currently a Lecturer at the Australian National University.
