Dr Ros Gammie is a lecturer Theology specialising in medieval theology and philosophy. She received her PhD in medieval memory and confession in 2022 from the University of Leicester and has been lecturing at BGU since 2018/19. Her publications and foci of interest include medieval epistemology (2019), memories of the Crusades (2023) and the medieval folk-story of the Green Children of Woolpit (2024). Her current research focus is on manifestations of memory and trauma in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, particularly with regards to works of autobiography, and the relationship between history, memory, and space. She is also interested in the way the medieval world is treated in popular media, particularly in video games and film, and the intersectionality of medieval studies.

Dr Gammie currently teaches across a number of Undergraduate and Postgraduate modules in Theology including a History of Christianity, Women and Faith, and Religion, War, and Terrorism. Her goal is to make the medieval world accessible to students, who often encounter it for the first time as Undergraduates.

She has a BA in American Studies with History from the University of Nottingham (2012) and an MA in Medieval History from the University of York (2014).
