Research Interests:
I do research on British Romanticism, Victorian Poetry, the Holocaust, the Bible as literature, and Comic art. I am interested in the relationship between literature and ethics, cognitive reception and production of art, and the question of the spiritual. I'm also interested in how nature helps shape literature.
