I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Classics. I have published on ancient Greek utopia, Greek tragedy and intertextuality, and fifth-century BCE legal and political theory. I am currently completing my dissertation "A Grammar of Democracy: Antilogic Politics and Literature in Classical Greece". My interests include:
- Classical Greek literature and intellectual history (sophistic culture, law and oratory, Attic tragedy, historiography, the Socratic dialogue and Plato, rhetoric)
- Contemporary political theory (polarization, agonistic democracy, deliberation)
- Literary theory (reader-response criticism, postcritique, theories of contextualism, comparative literature)
