So Young Park

Assistant Professor

English

I teach courses in nineteenth-century British literature, especially Victorian literature and culture.  My teaching interests include women novelists (Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, George Eliot, Virginia Woolf), narrative theory, poetry and poetics, and Modernism.  Currently, my research centers on Victorian novels and representations of consciousness.  I am also interested in the literary and arts movements of the 1890s (the fin de siecle) in England and Europe.
