  • About
  • Publications
I am an Associate Professor of English and Hutchinson Distinguished Professor at Loyola University New Orleans, a liberal arts college. 

I
specialize in nineteenth-century British fiction, poetry and essays.
My first book, Reductive Reading: A Syntax of Victorian Moralizing (Johns Hopkins UP, 2018),
is a study of deliberately reductive reading practices from nineteenth-century moralism to distant reading in the present that yield surprising--and surprisingly subtle--results. As a member of the Stanford Literary Lab, I co-authored several of the studies in Canon/Archive (n+1 books, 2017).  My essays have appeared in ELH, Genre, Victorian Literature and Culture, Victorian Poetry, Journal of Cultural Analytics, Public Books, The Rambling, and Avidly.  My second book, The Rise of Celebrity Authorship: Nineteenth-Century Print Culture and Antislavery, is forthcoming from Columbia UP and slated for Fall 2025.

I am affiliated with the Section on the Sociology of Literature and the Uppsala Computational Literary Studies Group at Uppsala University.
