Professional Bio

Caitlyn Georgiou's research focuses on interpreting and teaching narratives of violence in American literature and pop culture from the twentieth-century to the present. Caitlyn is Co-Editor of a scholarly online edition of Eric Walrond's Tropic Death, and her research has been published and is forthcoming in journals such as Teaching American Literature and Studies in the Novel. Her current book project examines suicide, self-harm, and violence in literature, and she hopes it will provide scholars and teachers across disciplines new tools of analysis for handling literary self-violence with greater understanding and care.
