Description of Research

Summary Statement of Research Interests
Professor Malone studies Medieval art from 300 to 1300, but her research emphasizes French Romanesque and English Gothic architecture and sculpture. Her book, Facade as Spectacle: Ritual and Ideology at Wells Cathedral (Leiden & Boston 2004) which was published in Brill's interdisciplinary series, Studies in Medieval and Reformation Traditions, interprets the Gothic façade of Wells as part of political discourse and liturgical innovation in England around 1220. More recently, she has published two books on the early-eleventh century church of Saint-Bénigne in Dijon. Her study of the archeological documentation of Saint-Bénigne was published as: L’église et la rotonde de Saint-Bénigne à Dijon autour de l’an mil, (Editions universitaires de Dijon, 2008). Her liturgical and historical research, funded by fellowships from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts, ACLS, and AAUW, was published in 2009 as part of the Brepols series, Disciplina monastica (5), Saint-Bénigne de Dijon en l’an mil, "totius Gallie basilicis mirabiliorem": Interprétation politique, liturgique et théologique.
