Adam Hammond is an Associate Professor at the University of Toronto in the Department of English, specializing in British Modernism, Digital Humanities, and Literature and Technology. His research examines intersections between literature, technology, and politics, focusing on how dialogic forms in modernist literature model democratic thought and how independent media production (small-press, indie games) drives experimental art.

- Key Collaborations: Julian Brooke and Graeme Hirst in computational literary analysis
- Publications: Literature in the Digital Age: An Introduction (2016), co-edited Modernism: Keywords (2014), and forthcoming Cambridge Critical Concepts: Literature and Technology (2018)
His digital humanities work develops literary applications of natural language processing, including a 2016 study pairing close reading with big data in Reading Modernism with Machines. He critically engages with cultural debates on the legitimacy of popular forms (e.g., Bob Dylan's Nobel Prize) through historical and formalist lenses.
- Scientific Awards: Nominated for the Modernist Studies Association Book Prize (2015)
- Academic Contributions: Theoretical work on prosody in modernist poetry, methodological innovations in digital literary analysis, and critical interventions in genre studies
