As a scholar trained in European intellectual and cultural history, I have always been more interested in interdisciplinary themes and concepts than in traditional historical work based around national boundaries and time periods. Despite writing two monographs that deal with French culture and society, today my research and teaching explore concepts, themes and trends that cut across national boundaries in the West, with special attention to the cultural history of gender, sexuality and the body.
