About: 

Johanna Dale gained her undergraduate and master’s degrees in history from Cambridge, before working as a picture librarian in London for several years. In 2010, she began her doctoral research at the University of East Anglia and in 2013 spent a semester as a wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin at the University of Heidelberg. Her PhD comprised a comparative study of the influence of coronation liturgy on images of kingship in England, France and Germany c.1050-c.1250. She has published on an anonymous Latin chronicle from twelfth-century Germany and returned to Cambridge in 2013 to work with Mark Chinca and Christopher Young on the AHRC-funded Kaiserchronik project.
