Anders Skare Malvik

Anders Skare Malvik is a Professor in the Department of Language and Literature at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). His research focuses on the intersections between literature, media technology, and cultural history, particularly exploring how literary expression engages with media transformations from 19th-century innovations like the telegraph to contemporary digital culture. He leads the ImagiNation project mapping Norwegian literary geographies (1814-1905) and co-edits academic volumes on media aesthetics and 19th-century literature.

Malvik's teaching spans undergraduate and graduate courses on media studies, literary history, and research methods. He has developed interdisciplinary approaches to digital humanities, authoring reports on establishing DH labs at NTNU. His work bridges literary analysis with media philosophy, examining topics like infrastructural influences on Bjørnson's realism and ekphrastic modes in digital contexts.

Key research contributions include studies on media archaeology, Ibsen's noo-politics, and the role of newspapers/telegraphs in shaping literary subjectivity. His publications span academic journals like Scandinavian Studies and Ibsen Studies, as well as edited volumes exploring media's impact on modernist aesthetics and contemporary art.

Malvik's projects often involve collaborative digital humanities initiatives, such as corpus analysis of Norwegian literature and visualizing spatial data through projects like ImagiNation. He frequently presents at international conferences and engages in public lectures about media's role in cultural production and literary interpretation.
