Sparky Booker is a Lecturer at Queen's University Belfast and specialises in medieval Irish social, cultural and legal history. Her publications have examined the interactions between the English of Ireland and the Irish in the later Middle Ages, and explored intermarriage, sumptuary law, ecclesiastical patronage and the Irish in urban society. Recent work examines female litigants in medieval Ireland, and analyses litigant strategies and the influence of wealth, status, ethnicity and gender on women's legal activities. Booker is keenly interested in public history and, as a member of the Friends of Medieval Dublin, was co-founder and co-editor of the Tales of Medieval Dublin lecture series and accompanying book.
