Biography:
Eliza Garrison received her Ph.D. from Northwestern University in 2005. Her research focuses on the art of the Carolingian and Ottonian Empires, the historiography of medieval art, and, most recently, on the importance of copies, copying, and simulacra in the Early Middle Ages. She is also broadly interested in processes of political representation, theories of portraiture, and the incorporation of spolia into medieval art objects. Her work has appeared in the Oxford Art Journal, Gesta, Peregrinations, and Postmedieval Forum. A book drawn from her dissertation, Ottonian Imperial Art and Portraiture: The Artistic Patronage of Otto III and Henry II, appeared in 2012 with Ashgate.
