Profile
Salut! Welcome to MSU's department of Global Cultural Studies. We offer language, literature, culture, and translation courses, along with majors and minors across eleven languages: Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, German, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. We also offer an innovative joint degree program with the Feliciano School of Business focused on Language, Business & Culture.
In addition, we offer a major and a minor in Religious Studies!
My own teaching involves all levels of our French curriculum, from beginning and intermediate language courses, to major courses in translation, conversation, composition, and grammar, and undergraduate and MA courses in early modern literature and civilization.
Contact me about all of our programs!
Specialization
I specialize in research on the French short story of the fifteenth through the seventeenth century. More broadly, I am the department specialist in late medieval, Renaissance, and classical French literature and civilization. Additional teaching specialties include: women’s literature; narrative and narratology; early modern book and reading history; translation.
