Katie Kadue is an Assistant Professor at the Department of English, General Literature and Rhetoric at Binghamton University. She holds a PhD from the University of California, Berkeley and a BA from Yale University. Her research bridges early modern English and French literature with contemporary theoretical frameworks such as feminist theory, ecocriticism, and posthumanism.
Her first book, Domestic Georgic: Labors of Preservation from Rabelais to Milton (2021), redefines the georgic tradition by linking it to domestic labor and intellectual preservation. Her academic publications in journals like Representations, Modern Philology, and Qui Parle explore topics such as Renaissance anxieties about masculinity, the role of preservation in literary communities, and intersections between posthumanist theory and early modern texts. She also contributes to public-facing venues like the Los Angeles Review of Books and the Chronicle of Higher Education.
Key themes in her work include gendered labor, ecological metaphors, and literary techniques of suspension. Her Spenser Review essay connects the allegorical Garden of Adonis to modern ecological thought, while her Parapraxis review of Drew Daniel interrogates suicide and pleasure in early modern texts. Despite lacking explicitly stated scientific awards, her contributions to Montaigne Studies and Marvell Studies highlight her scholarly influence.
