The English Department at Denison University invites applications for a tenure-track position as Assistant Professor of English specializing in pre-1900 American Literature, to begin in August of 2025.  Strong candidates will demonstrate a commitment to teaching at the undergraduate level, an appreciation of the context of a small residential liberal arts institution, and a clear and active research agenda; preference will be shown for candidates who can contribute to the curricular breadth of the English department.  Our new colleague will be expected to teach sections of Denison’s first-year writing course, as well as introductory and upper-level literature courses of the candidate’s design.  See http://apply.interfolio.com/154482.

Normally, faculty will teach 5 courses annually, which will include both upper-level and introductory courses. Ability to teach pre-1900 American literature required, but otherwise the successful candidate will have considerable freedom designing courses that align with their intellectual interests. Interested faculty may also have the opportunity to affiliate with interdisciplinary programs such as the Program in Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, or the Center for the Study of Culture, Race, and Ethnicity.

Encouraged: Scholars whose work expands the definition of Pre-1900 ethnic American literature using hemispheric, oceanic, or global frameworks and comparative interdisciplinary methods are also welcomed to apply. This may include comparative studies between one of the above fields and another body of literature from the early modern, eighteenth- or nineteenth-century Americas, Atlantic and Pacific worlds, such as but not limited to Caribbean (e.g., Puerto Rican, Cuban, Saint-Domingue/Haitian, Chinese Jamaican or Trinidadian, etc.), Mexican Indigenous, Afro-Brazilian, or Hawaiian literatures.
