Robinson

I'm a 3rd-year Ph.D. student studying early modern literature. My research interests include women's writing, translation, closet drama, and religious writing. Before arriving at UVa, I graduated from Smith College in 2017 with a B.A. in English and Government.

Alden

I am interested in early modern drama and literature and, more specifically, the interplay between the print and theater industries in early modern England. My research focuses on the the different business models used by the increasingly commercial print and theater industries and their dramatists and the representation of self-interest and greed in early modern drama. My research incorporates economic history, book history, and theater history to analyze Shakespeare, Marlowe, Jonson, and Middleton and the economics of early modern theater.
