Ani Abrahamyan serves as Assistant Professor of Russian Studies at Hamilton College, appointed to the faculty in 2024. Her academic work bridges literary analysis and historical ethnography within the Department of Russian Studies, where she teaches language and literature courses including Third-Term Russian, Fourth-Term Russian, Advanced Russian I, and Portrait of a Woman.
Her educational foundation comprises:

Dr. Abrahamyan's research critically examines Imperial Russian social sciences through the lens of ethnographic inquiry's influence on literary realism, with specialized focus on alternative communal configurations and representations of transgression. Her current book project investigates legal and aesthetic frameworks of collective transgression in late Imperial Russia, analyzing how ethnography and criminal anthropology shaped literary depictions of marginalized groups—from urban criminals to Siberian exiles—while maintaining strong connections to Ukrainian cultural studies and pedagogical innovation in language instruction.
