After completing a PhD and MA at the University of Chicago, I came to the University of Missouri-Columbia in 2000, first as a Visiting Assistant and then Assistant Professor. My scholarly research centers on the literary culture of the early Hellenistic period, with classroom forays into archaic and classical Greek poetry, classical mythology, and ancient attitudes toward gender and ethnicity. Revisions of my book, The Politics of Apollonius Rhodius’ Argonautica (forthcoming from Cambridge University Press), are nearly complete; other recent publications include “Jason’s Reconciliation with Telamon: A Moral Exemplar in Apollonius (Arg. 1.1286-1344)” in the American Journal of Philology 126.2 (2005): 211-36. Forthcoming are “Honey-Sweet Words: Acts of Persuasion in Apollonius’ Argonautica.” in The Blackwell Companion to Greek Rhetoric, and “Piety and Diplomacy in Apollonius’ Argonautica,” in Ptolemy Philadelphus and his Times, forthcoming from Brill in 2007. |
