Charlotte Ross is a first year MPhil student at the University of Oxford, studying Medieval literature. Her current research focuses on ideas of hybridity and monstrosity in early medieval French, Anglo-Norman and English literature, focusing on ideas of periphery and marginality. A graduate of the University of Bristol, she hopes to continue to expand her research into a PhD in the near future.
