Robert Twiss serves as a Career Development Fellow in French Studies within the School of Modern Languages and Cultures. He actively participates in the Imagining Alternatives: Utopia in the World project under the Inventing Futures research program at the Institute for Medieval and Early-Modern Studies.
His research critically examines intersections between 17th-century utopian fiction and missionary accounts of Indigenous North-American societies near the Great Lakes region, analyzing how these texts inform possibilities for egalitarian social structures. He teaches comprehensive courses in French language and literature, integrating historical and literary perspectives.
Dr. Twiss's scholarly work bridges medieval/early-modern studies with contemporary social theory through the Imagining Alternatives initiative, focusing on utopian thought as a framework for reimagining societal organization.
