Dr Elizabeth New works on the social, cultural and religious history and material and visual culture of medieval Britain, and on aspects of heritage studies. In 2020-23 she held a Leverhulme Trust Major Research Fellowship, ‘Identity, interaction and exchange in medieval England’, that drew on a range of historical and scientific research methods to explore the ways in which people, especially of the under-investigated middling and lower levels of society, used seals as a means of identification and representation, and in relation to social, cultural and legal interactions and exchange. A major new monograph, Impressing People. Identity, interaction and exchange in medieval England and Wales emerged from this, and currently is under consideration with a publisher. In addition to this book Dr New is working on a series of publications that highlight how a holistic approach to seals and sealing practices, and in particular their full integration into medieval studies, can provide new insights into society and reveal important nuances of cultural meaning. Dr New was Co-Investigator for the AHRC project Imprint: a forensic and historical investigation of fingerprints on medieval seals www.imprintseals.org and previously was Senior Researcher for the AHRC Seals in Medieval Wales project.

Dr New’s critical edition of the records of the Jesus Guild in St Paul's Cathedral (Oxford, Bodleian Tanner MS 221), which provide valuable insights into socio-economic networks and the 'economy of salvation' on the eve of the Reformation, was recently published https://boydellandbrewer.com/9780900952623/records-of-the-jesus-guild-in-st-pauls-cathedral-c-1450-1550/ This is one element in Dr New’s ongoing work on aspects of the Holy Name (the subject of her PhD) in relation to expressions of Christocentric devotion, a monograph about which is under crontract with Boydell & Brewer.

Dr New has a range of interests relating to heritage, material culture, and historiography, and currently is investigating a group of medievalists active during the period of the ‘professionalization’ of history.
