SGB (Ph.D. Princeton University, 2000) teaches medieval history at Fordham University in the Bronx, New York. A scholar of the history of Christianity in the Middle Ages, SGB has written widely on the frontiers of the monastic imagination in premodern Europe. His books treat a diverse range of topics in medieval religious and cultural history, from monastic sign language to European perceptions of Islam in the Middle Ages. He has edited four historical anthologies for Penguin Classics: The Penguin Book of the Undead (2016); The Penguin Book of Hell (2018); and The Penguin Book of Dragons (2021); and most recently The Penguin Book of Demons (2024). A collection of his essays on Cluniac monasticism, entitled Monasticism and Manuscript Culture in Medieval Europe: Studies in Cluniac History, c. 900-1200, is forthcoming from Cornell University Press in January 2026.
