About
Works on representations and ideas of childhood in literature and philosophy, with a particular focus on the child of the American nineteenth-century. She is currently working on a monograph on Henry James and the Work of Childhood, which examines James's place in refashioning the child for modernity, taking into account his critical relationship to the child of nineteenth-century American Romanticism. More broadly, her work engages with utopian theory and practice, with a particular interest in the influence of the French utopian socialist Charles Fourier. Other theoretical interests include Walter Benjamin, Hannah Arendt and the Frankfurt School, psychoanalysis, Michael Foucault and Giorgio Agamben.
