Samuel Hodgkin is an Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature at Yale University with a secondary appointment in Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations (NELC). His research bridges medieval and modern Eurasian literary studies, focusing on Persianate poetry, Soviet internationalist literary projects, and world literature frameworks. He holds a PhD from the University of Chicago (2018) and BA/MA from Harvard University (2008).
Key research areas include the transformation of Persianate literary traditions in Soviet contexts, transnational canon formation, and the intersection of Romanticism with postcolonial poetics. His book manuscript Red Nightingales examines Soviet-era Eastern internationalism's literary foundations. Hodgkin co-organizes the Cultures of World Socialism Working Group and guest-edits a Comparative Literature Studies special issue on "Communist World Poetics."
