Sarah Frühwirth is a literary scholar and postdoctoral researcher at the Department of English Studies, University of Vienna, specializing in 18th- and 19th-century British literature and gender discourses. Her work intersects sensation novels, determinism, mourning practices, and the history of science and medicine.
- Educated in English, American, and German Studies at the University of Vienna (doctorate in English Studies, 2020)
Her research explores how 18th-century mourning literature reflects and challenges gender roles, alongside the cultural impact of sensation novels like Wilkie Collins' The Woman in White. She connects literary analysis to broader philosophical debates on free will and scientific determinism.
Frühwirth's editorial roles include Reviews Editor of the Wilkie Collins Journal (2018–2022) and contributor to the Journal of Victorian Culture since 2022. Her work highlights under-studied intersections of gender, genre, and intellectual history in Victorian-era texts.
