Lynn Arner is an Associate Professor in the Department of English Language & Literature at Brock University. Her research interests lie in feminist theory, contemporary theory, British cultural studies, and critical university studies, with a particular focus on the academic experiences of women and non-ruling classes in the historical context of English literature. Arner has published a variety of articles addressing gender and class in the professoriate, including examining the dynamics of first-generation university students transitioning to faculty roles. Her book, 'Chaucer, Gower, Vernacular Rising: Poetry Problem Populace 1381', published by Penn State University Press in 2013, investigates the transmission of Greco-Roman literature in late medieval England. Through her work, she offers insights into the cultural significance of poetry and its role in social control during the late medieval period.
