Academic interests
My PhD thesis treated the history of Norwegian classical philology in the 19th century. More specifically, I focused on the classical philological research at the university in Norway and its development during this century, as well as its interaction with contemporary cultural, political, and academic currents, both nationally and internationally.
As a research fellow, I currently also teach courses in Latin and ancient studies at BA and MA level.
I'm also very interested in classical reception and the cultural history of the Latin language, in particular, how Latin and the classical heritage have been used and abused throughout history.
My MA thesis examined the reception of ancient mythology and literature, primarily Ovid's Metamorphoses, in the opera Semele (1744) by G.F. Handel.
