Hannah Victoria Johnson

Hannah Victoria Johnson is a Junior Lecturer in Comparative Literature and English at the American University of Paris. She earned her PhD in linguistics and medieval literature from Sorbonne Université, focusing on queer theoretical approaches to 12th-13th century devotional poetry. Her research bridges cognitive linguistics and gender studies to analyze representations of female identity in medieval texts.

Johnson's work examines how mystical literature articulates non-normative affective experiences through religious discourse. She maintains active research collaborations across European institutions and regularly presents at international medieval studies conferences.
