Research interests:
I am an AHRC funded PhD student at Royal Holloway, University of London. My research investigates the intersections and interplay between anthropological and literary writing about the Pacific in the nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, with a focus on the authors Robert Louis Stevenson, Jack London and Albert Wendt, as well as anthropologists Andrew Lang and Bronislaw Malinowski. I am Chair of the London Nineteenth-Century Studies Graduate Strand run through the Institute of English Studies in London, which brings together PGRs and ECRs working on the long-nineteenth century.
