Maria Farland is an Associate Professor in the Department of English at Fordham University, where she also serves as Director of Placement and Professional Development for Graduate Studies. She holds a B.A. from Amherst College and a Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University.
Her research explores intersections across American literature pre-1910, gender studies, literature and medicine, and literature and the environment. This interdisciplinary approach reflects her deep engagement with how cultural narratives shape understandings of identity, health, and nature.
Her publications demonstrate sustained focus on 19th and 20th century American literary responses to industrialization, scientific discourse, and social change—particularly through analyses of Walt Whitman's environmental vision, feminist critiques in women's liberation fiction, and explorations of medical themes in modernist poetry.
