Her educational background includes: PhD in English Literature, University of York (2020) Postdoctoral Researcher, Department for the History of Science and Ideas, Uppsala University (2022-2024) Dr. Schurch's research focuses on the relationship between literary form and knowledge production in eighteenth and nineteenth-century British writing. Her work intersects three main areas: women's writing, the history of colonialism, and poetics. She is particularly committed to recovering lesser-known and non-canonical authors across various genres, examining how textual forms served as sites of epistemological debate and resistance to masculinized knowledge production. Her approach combines literary analysis with historical and scientific perspectives, spanning from epistolary culture to botanical exploration and geological discourse. Her recent publications demonstrate consistent engagement with how women writers and scientific practitioners used literary forms to engage with empirical methods and colonial knowledge systems. Her work reveals patterns connecting epistolary practices, botanical knowledge production, and poetic expression across the long eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, with particular attention to how marginalized voices negotiated scientific discourse. Associate Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy (UK), 2018 AHRC funding for doctoral research As an educator, she has taught English Literature from undergraduate to master's level, with specializations in eighteenth and nineteenth-century literature, postcolonial literature, and literary theory. She has also contributed to interdisciplinary teaching at Uppsala University's Department for the History of Science and Ideas and served as a Writing Tutor at the University of York for four years. Her current research project explores how poets, geologists, and industrialists developed what she terms an 'underground poetics' that cultivated esteem for depth in literary interpretation during the 1840s-60s.
