| Professor Ng specializes
in early modern literature with a secondary interest in postcolonial
literatures. Her book, Literature and the Politics of Family in
Seventeenth-Century England (Cambridge University Press,
forthcoming 2007), examines how the putatively conservative analogy
between state and family was used for radical political ends. She has
published essays on Aemilia Lanyer and early Stuart court patronage,
the late medieval Bible translations of the Wycliffites and Tyndale,
Quaker women, and postcolonial African and Southeast Asian nationalisms
in ELH, Studies in Philology, The Seventeenth
Century, the Journal of Commonwealth Literature, and an
edited collection on postcolonial women writers. In postcolonial
studies, she is particularly interested in Southeast Asian responses to
Japanese imperialism. Bringing together interests in early modern
England and in colonialism/postcolonialism, her second book project, Global
Renaissance: Early Modern Classicism and Empire from the British Isles
to the Malay Archipelago, explores how Greek and Roman models of
empire became part of native histories of the early modern maritime
kingdoms of England and in Southeast Asia. She teaches courses in
sixteenth- and seventeenth-century British literature, early modern
travel literature, early modern women writers, Shakespeare, Milton, and
postcolonial literature. |
