Biography

Emma K Crowley is a Lecturer in the Department of English at the University of Bristol. She joined the university in 2016 as a PhD candidate and is now engaged in research and teaching related to World Contemporary Literature. Her current project focuses on a monograph titled 'World Literature Wake Cold War', which analyzes collective forms in contemporary, non-Western literature and its relationship with the aesthetic cold war. Emma’s research includes multilingual and comparative studies of Post-Soviet, Latin American, and Caribbean writing, particularly emphasizing the complexities of literary translation within various linguistic systems such as Russophone, Hispanophone, and Creole. Her work also intersects with themes of transnational feminisms and literary cultural activism, alongside Irish literature and genre fiction. At Bristol, she convenes modules like 'Literatures of Decolonisation' and 'Dangerous Books: Border-Worlds', promoting an interdisciplinary approach that seeks to break the boundaries between research and teaching. Her involvement in various research groups and themes underscores her commitment to exploring migration and mobilities within a critical framework.
