| Professor Sawaya's
research and teaching interests focus on nineteenth-and
twentieth-century American literature and culture, women's writing, and
feminist criticism and literary theory. Her published work includes
essays on Jane Addams, Pauline Hopkins, Sarah Orne Jewett, and Frank
Norris. Her book manuscript, "Working Through Modernity: Domesticity,
Professionalism, and Women's Writing", examines the ways that women
from the 1890s to the 1940s combined the discourses of domesticity and
professionalism in order to shape interchangeably their writings and
their work. Professor Sawaya teaches classes in nineteenth- and
twentieth-century American literature and in contemporary literary
theory. |
