Antony Roch is a lecturer specializing in ancient and medieval history at the University of Fribourg, where he completed his Master's degree in History in 2015 and obtained his PhD in June 2021 under the supervision of Professor Hans-Joachim Schmidt. His research interests encompass the interconnected history of the medieval West and East, focusing on various subjects including the history of the papacy, the medieval Church, and the symbolic and material representations of power within medieval society. His doctoral dissertation examined the construction and transformation of the symbolic and material identity of the cardinalate during the late Middle Ages. Notably, he is involved in research that addresses Byzantine civilization and its interconnections with the medieval West. Roch's forthcoming publication, titled 'Les visages du cardinal. Construction et transformations de l’identité symbolique et matérielle du cardinalat à la fin du Moyen Âge et sous la première Renaissance', will further contribute to the discourse in this field.
