תחומי עניין
My research focuses on English and Irish modernism. I am additionally interested in medieval literature and religious iconology, and in the role that medieval texts play in the development of the modernist novel. My doctoral dissertation focuses on the role of hell within modern imagination, and I have ongoing projects on Dante and Modernism, and on Flann O’Brien and the Carnivalesque.
