My Research

Although I have been very active on the Internet, my "traditional" scholarship continues to thrive. In many ways I have one foot firmly planted in the past and one foot tentatively planted in the future. One example would be my seminar, Hamlet in Hyperspace, whose subtitle is "Writing, Technology, and the Future of Ideas."

I am currently writing a book on the Glossa Ordinaria, to be published by the University of Wales Press. I have published articles in Christianity and Literature, book reviews in the Journal of the American Academy of Religion and Sixteenth Century Studies (among others), and began and continue to run the on-line discussion group, Mystic-L, devoted to the academic discussion of mysticism.

I am the editor of the Gregory of Nyssa HomePage. The page contains information and translations of Gregory of Nyssa's works done by Brother Casimir McCambly of St. Joseph's Abbey in Spencer, MA. The Gregory material was published on a CD-ROM by The Great American Publishing Society in 1999. I also edit the Lectio Divina Page. And an ongoing project has been The Richard Rolle Home Page, which will eventually contain hypertext editions of Rolle's works.

In 1999 I completed work on Contemplation With The Muse, a website for Marilyn Nelson, funded by a Contemplative Practices Fellowship. In August 2001 I presented a paper on the technology of space at the PAIDEIA Retreat in Northwestern Ontario.
