While I presently focus on early modern literature and puritanism, I also
teach Shakespeare, critical theory in Comparative Literature, as well as
courses in Women's Studies and Jewish Studies. I have a particular interest in
advanced technology in teaching and research in the humanities.
Courses
Poetry and Prose of John Milton (English 28), Shakespeare I (English 24),
Critical Theory (Comparative Literature 72), The Merchant of Venice (Jewish
Studies 70), advanced seminars in Milton, and Poetry and Prose of the
Seventeenth Century (English 27).
