Research Focus: Todorovic’s work interrogates how ancient texts like Euripides’ Bacchae engage with concepts of cultural borders and exceptionalism. He explores post-Yugoslav contexts through a ‘balkanizing’ lens, challenging traditional interpretations of classical reception. His theoretical framework integrates trauma studies and psychoanalysis to analyze cultural dynamics.
Teaching & Advocacy: He taught Latin at Yale’s Prison Education Initiative and co-authored a chapter on dialogic pedagogy for prison classics education. His teaching emphasizes thematic engagement with classical texts in modern settings.
