Biography
Jane Malcolm joined the English Department at the Université de Montréal in April 2012. Her research interests include poetry and poetics, British, American, and European modernism, extra-literary modernism, the poetics of gender, the problem of difficulty, and the theory and practice of translation. Her work has appeared in Arizona Quarterly, VLAK, AModern, Lemon Hound, and Jacket2. A co-edited edition of Laura Riding's 1928 volume of criticism, Contemporaries and Snobs, was published by the University of Alabama's Modern and Contemporary Poetics Series in 2014.
