Christopher Highley studies early modern English history and literature, with particular attention to the religious and political life of Reformation-era Britain and Ireland. His recent work centers on the Blackfriars district of London, examining its Catholic community, playhouses, and neighborhood life in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. This research combines literary, theatrical, and historical sources to explore how religion, politics, and public space intersected in this period.
Publication counts were low and irregular for most of the last decade, with a large cluster of outputs in 2022 (likely tied to a single book project) followed by minimal activity in surrounding years.
