I am interested in literary studies, the history of sexuality, and queer theory. My work focuses primarily on the late nineteenth- and early twentieth century. One constant that runs through much of my research to-date is an interest in the relation between sexuality and time.
Primary research interests include:
- literary and cultural modernism
- literature and sexual science
- history of sexology and psychoanalysis
- history of sexuality
- sexuality studies and queer theory
- LGBT literatures and histories
