Research and scholarship

Research and scholarship

My research concentrates on nineteenth-century Russian literature and I have an international reputation as a leading specialist in issues of gender in Russian literature. Recently, I have also moved into cinema research, and have already published three refereed articles in this field.

Current Projects

Robert Reid and I are currently editing for publication two volumes of papers from the 2006 conference on Turgenev: ‘Turgenev and His Contemporaries’. I am also currently engaged on a collaborative volume on women in nineteenth-century Russian literature with American and Finnish specialists.
