Curriculum Vitae | |||
 |
Thomas Anderson received his Ph.D. in English from Vanderbilt University with a specialization in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century literature and has participated in seminars at the Folger Library and at the School of Criticism and Theory. One of his favorite undergraduate courses to teach looks at contemporary appropriations of Shakespeare in novels, plays, and movies. He teaches undergraduate and graduate courses on Shakespeare and the first half of the British literature survey. His essays on Renaissance culture and literature appear in Criticism, The Journal for Early Modern Cultural Studies, Literature Compass, and English Literary Renaissance. Dr. Anderson has also written about the illustrations of Eden in the 1688 edition of Paradise Lost for Milton Quarterly. His book, Performing Early Modern Trauma from Shakespeare to Milton (Ashgate, 2006) looks at the way early modern writers made sense of historical crises such as the Reformation, regicide and royal death. He is currently co-editing an edition of key scenes from John Foxe's Acts and Monuments. | |||
