Senior Lecturer in Material History, Queen Mary University of London
Eyal Poleg is a senior lecturer in Material History at Queen Mary University of London in the U.K. Eyal’s work explores the ways material culture can inform us on the history of medieval and early modern religion. This combination first arose from a BA in history and photography and an MA in Comparative Religion (Jerusalem), followed by a doctorate in history (London) and a subsequent British Academy postdoctoral fellowship in Edinburgh. Eyal’s book, “Material History of the Bible, England 1200-1553” was published in 2020 by Oxford University Press for the British Academy.
