My research focuses on language use and how
speakers/authors use language to (re)create social space for
themselves. My specific research currently focuses on Ancient
Greek poetic texts, but it is applicable across a much wider range of
literature. Secondarily I am interested in how literature fits
within the wider sphere of language use, and in issues of language
change.
