I offer courses in Russian language at all levels, modern Russian literature, culture, and society, and in film and media studies. My courses are often designed to put Russian texts into dialogue with a range of other traditions and literatures, with various interdisciplinary goals and approaches in mind. Having studied as an undergraduate at Reed College, I think the most enriching part of my professional life have been teaching and advising. Over the past several years, I’ve offered courses on the representation of race in Russia cultural production, survey courses on such topics as Russian and Soviet Cinema, special topics courses on, for example, the representation of labor, the work of Vladimir Nabokov, and the cinematic work and theory of Sergei Eisenstein. In the coming years, I’m hoping to continue to teach these courses, and to provide new offerings on such topics as the concept of form, the poetics and politics of language, and the study of prehistory.
