Kang publishes collection of photographsKang publishes collection of photographs;tkang;4/28/2023 4:00:00 AM<p><strong>Tanya Kang</strong>, UD alumna and academic program coordinator for the Department of English, has published a collection of black and white photographs that capture the passion of Pearl Jam fans and their connection to the band’s music through their favorite lyrics. Kang spent 10 years traveling to concerts across the country to create <em><a href="https://www.pearljamfanportraits.com/book/" title="https://www.pearljamfanportraits.com/book/" target="_blank">I Am Mine: Pearl Jam Fan Portraits</a></em>, compiled from more than 1,000 fan portraits. “It was a true labor of love: taking photos all day, going to the show that night, traveling on to the next show the following day and taking red eye flights to make it back in time to work my day job,” Kang says. “I wanted to do something to capture how much the music means to all of us.”​</p>Uncropped VerticalGP0|#e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b;L0|#0e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b|Publications;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c2023.00000000000https://www.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=304

Trivedi published in the journal; "Pedagogy"Trivedi published in the journal; "Pedagogy";atrivedi;4/7/2023 4:00:00 AM<p>​<strong>​Amish Trivedi</strong>, a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of English, was recently published in the journal <em><a href="https://read.dukeupress.edu/pedagogy" title="https://read.dukeupress.edu/pedagogy" target="_blank">Pedagogy</a></em>. The article, “<a href="https://read.dukeupress.edu/pedagogy/article-abstract/23/1/91/342604/Preparing-for-the-Posthistorical?redirectedFrom=fulltext" title="https://read.dukeupress.edu/pedagogy/article-abstract/23/1/91/342604/Preparing-for-the-Posthistorical?redirectedFrom=fulltext" target="_blank">Preparing for the Posthistorical University: Teaching Capital in the Creative Writing Classroom</a>,” examines the application of critical pedagogy to creative writing courses in the modern era of higher education. The article incorporates discussions of various forms of capital and histories of cultural and capital production to examine the tension between teaching knowledge acquisition versus direct skills in creative writing classes. He concludes that the goal in today’s teaching isn't to make writers, necessarily, but to give students information and knowledge to not only value the artforms taught, but to continue doing writing work if they desire. Trivedi, a poet, has published three books along with several other articles.​<br></p>Uncropped VerticalGP0|#e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b;L0|#0e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b|Publications;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c2023.00000000000https://www.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=299
Poole heads online Renaissance resourcePoole heads online Renaissance resource;kpoole;mkray;monicadt;jyates;3/17/2023 4:00:00 AM<p>​<strong>Kristen Poole</strong>, Ned B. Allen Professor of English, is the general editor of <a href="https://www.taylorfrancis.com/rrorw/?context=rrorw" title="https://www.taylorfrancis.com/rrorw/?context=rrorw">Routledge Resources Online - The Renaissance World</a> currently available to the public, with a full launch schedule for summer 2023. Poole began working with Routledge in 2017 to create this large-scale digital platform that includes essays on the global Renaissance from scholars across the disciplinary spectrum, including UD faculty <strong>Meredith K. Ray</strong>, Elias Ahuja Professor of Italian; <strong>Mónica Domínguez Torres</strong>, professor of art history with a joint appointment in Latin American and Iberian studies; and <strong>Julian Yates</strong>, H. Fletcher Brown Professor of English, among experts drawn from other institutions. “‘Renaissance’ is itself a fraught term, as is the very question of how, or even whether, to divide the past into discrete eras. Our authors do not hold a monolithic notion of ‘Renaissance’ as a clearly defined time or movement. This resource invites a fresh take on the period by emphasizing its movement and intersection—the travel of people, ideas and objects,” Poole says.​</p>Uncropped VerticalGP0|#e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b;L0|#0e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b|Publications;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c2023.00000000000https://www.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=293
Wasserman wins literary prizeWasserman wins literary prize12/9/2022 5:00:00 AM<p>​<strong>Sarah Wass​erman</strong>, associate professor of English and associate director of the Center for Material and Culture Studies, won the 1921 Prize in American Literature from the journal <em>American Literary History</em> for her 2021 article “<a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/859223/summary" target="_blank">Critical Darlings, Critical Dogs: Joseph O’Neill and What Contemporary Criticism Doesn’t Want”</a>. The essay argues that the drive within literary studies to name new paradigms obscures key historical continuities in contemporary fiction. To explore this problem, Wasserman turns to Joseph O’Neill’s <em>The Dog </em>(2014), a novel mostly panned or ignored by critics. <em>The Dog</em> courts its status as an outcast by confounding readers’ expectations of novelty.<br></p>Uncropped VerticalGP0|#99d961eb-8936-415c-9024-28a13cec289a;L0|#099d961eb-8936-415c-9024-28a13cec289a|Awards and Honors;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c2022.00000000000https://www.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=263
