Christiana Salah is Associate Professor of English at Hope College, with a special focus on British Literature from the 19th century forward. She is also part of the Women’s and Gender Studies program and teaches interdisciplinary courses in Gender and Disability Studies.
In addition to a passion for all things Victorian, her scholarship reflects a range of diverse interests, from children’s and young adult literature to film adaptation. Across all these areas of inquiry, a common thread is her desire to understand the experience of women in different times and places, and to push back against a popular view of gender norms as having once been more simplistic and clearly enforced than they are today.
The title of this blog is a nod to Dr. Salah’s obsession with governesses, the subject of her doctoral research. Like Edward Gorey’s governess,* her pursuit of scholarly truth in archives and adaptations grows daily more erratic.
