Research
Professor Johnson’s research is closely related to the courses that she offers. Her current research focuses on cross-cultural encounters, proto-ethnography, and the representation of authority in the sixteenth-century Habsburg Empire. She is also interested in questions of material and visual culture, religious and cultural identities, and theorizing colonialism in the early modern era. In 2004-2005, she was on leave at the John Carter Brown and Huntington Libraries, working on a book manuscript “Categorical Denials: Mexicans, Ottomans, and Culture in Sixteenth-Century Europe.”
