Dr. Grayson's research critically examines human-fictional being relationships and their life-shaping consequences across American literature, world literature, and consciousness studies. His interdisciplinary approach integrates medieval theology, film theory, and literary analysis to explore how consciousness manifests in narrative forms, with particular focus on authors like Alfred Jarry and ee cummings.
His publication trajectory reveals consistent thematic development from his 2015-2016 journal articles on Jarry and consciousness to the 2019 book The Creation of Reality, demonstrating deepening theoretical engagement with literary consciousness while maintaining creative output through fiction publications.
