Sara Eddleman
 
 
To begin with...
I teach, I study, I write and on occasion, I work on this and that.
I study (transcontinental) Modernism, an am especially infatuated with the mid-20th century. Topics of interest include: transgression & ambiguity; apocalypse; in/posthumanity; sexuality; disability and the body; psychoanalysis. Of particular import to me are texts (and films) that explore horror and the body in transformation, especially by industry/capitalism, expatriacy/diaspora and technological intervention.
And this is me, too: CV.pdf
