Entidhar Al-Rashid

Dr. Entidhar Al-Rashid serves as Visiting Assistant Professor of English within the Department of English at the College of Arts & Sciences, Mississippi University for Women. Her academic appointment centers on literary scholarship with cross-period expertise.

Her educational qualifications include:

• Ph.D. in English Literature, University of Texas at Dallas
• M.A. in English Literature, Missouri State University
• B.A. in English, University of Kufa, Najaf, Iraq

Research interests span post-colonial hybridity, early modern gender representations, Shakespearean psychology, Victorian poetry, and contemporary Middle Eastern cultural studies. Her work consistently examines intersections of identity, historical trauma, and literary form across diverse genres and eras, with particular attention to marginalized voices and cultural negotiation.

Publication trends reveal a methodical evolution from foundational studies in Puritan elegy (2019) and Shakespearean mental health (2017) toward sophisticated analyses of post-colonial identity (2022) and gendered historical narratives (2021). Her corpus demonstrates rigorous engagement with canonical and contemporary texts while maintaining focus on cultural representation and ideological critique.
