Dr. Jordan Kistler is a Senior Lecturer in English at the University of Strathclyde’s School of Humanities, specializing in Victorian literature. She joined Strathclyde in 2019 after teaching at the University of Birmingham and Keele University. Her research focuses on Victorian poetry, museum studies, Gothic fiction, and the intersections between literature and science. She holds a BA from New York University, an MA from York University, and a PhD from King’s College London.
Her current project is a cultural history of the 19th-century British Museum, examining epistemological questions around knowledge, class, gender, and nationality. She has published a monograph, Arthur O’Shaughnessy: A Pre-Raphaelite Poet in the British Museum (2016), and contributes to Neo-Victorian Studies to counter nostalgic historical interpretations. She is involved in the Scottish Centre for Victorian and Neo-Victorian Studies and collaborates on ESRC-funded projects like Fantasy and the Museum.
