About

I specialize in Renaissance poetry, queer theory, and poetics. My most recent monograph is Shakespeare and Queer Representation (2020). I am now finishing a monograph on line endings in Renaissance poetry. I have articles and book chapters forthcoming on Katherine Philips, on Edmund Spenser and Roland Barthes, on gender in Sidney’s Arcadia and on sonnet couplets. I am beginning a new book on Shakespeare’s sonnets in the 21st century.

I welcome graduate students in Renaissance literature, especially poetry, in queer theory and gender studies more generally, and in poetics (of any period).
