Emily Hogg

Emily Hogg is an Associate Professor at the Department of Culture and Language, University of Southern Denmark. She holds a PhD in English Literature from Queen Mary University of London (2015) and an MA in Understanding and Securing Human Rights from the University of London (2015). Her research focuses on the intersections of contemporary anglophone literature with precarity, gendered labor, human rights, displacement, alcohol consumption, and feminist praxis.

Her scholarly work examines:

• Precarity and public housing in British literature
• Gender and work in 21st-century fiction
• Human rights discourse in postcolonial contexts
• Alcohol sobriety counterstories
• Feminist pedagogical frameworks

Key article trends include analyzing precarity through temporal and spatial lenses, gendered labor dynamics in Brexit-era narratives, and the ethical potential of literature in addressing social crises. She has organized public events with Margaret Atwood and contributed to media discussions on literature's societal impact.

Teaching includes courses on world literature, core humanities research, and English studies, with supervision of PhD candidates. Projects such as Feminized: A New Literary History of Women's Work (2021-2024) advance her research agenda.
