Faculty Member, English
Assistant Professor
About
I'm interested in Milton, seventeenth-century poetry, humanist rhetoric, European epic, Protestant theology, Kantian and post-Kantian aesthetics, the history of syntax, iconoclasm, comparative morphology, and the digital humanities more broadly.
My article, "WWJD? The Genealogy of a Syntactic Form," out in the Fall 2010 issue of Critical Inquiry, is the first chapter of my second book project, tentatively titled _Cyberformalism_. Another article, "Why Milton is Not an Iconoclast," slated to appear in PMLA by the end of the year, is from my first book project, _Milton and the Art of Rhetoric_, under contract with Cambridge UP.
In August of 2011 I will begin teaching at Georgetown University as an Assistant Professor.
