استاد · Eighteenth-century British literature
Baldwin Wallace Universityمعرفی
Professor Ana de Freitas Boe serves as faculty at Baldwin Wallace University and directs the gender studies minor, specializing in eighteenth-century British literature and culture with interdisciplinary focus on gender, sexuality, and race.
Her academic credentials include:
- Ph.D. from State University of New York at Buffalo
- M.A. from University of Rochester
- B.A. from Minnesota State University-Moorhead
Dr. Boe's research critically examines historical constructions of identity through travel literature, Jane Austen adaptations, gothic fiction, dystopian narratives, and South Asian diaspora studies. Her scholarship reveals consistent engagement with power dynamics in literary representations of marginalized identities across historical contexts.
Her publications demonstrate convergence of literary analysis with gender theory, spanning heteronormativity in eighteenth-century culture (2015), Aphra Behn's pedagogy (2014), and Wollstonecraft/More scholarship (2011). These works integrate literature, cultural studies, and gender theory with subfields including queer theory, postcolonial studies, and feminist philosophy.
