Brenna MacDougall

Brenna MacDougall is a PhD candidate in Cultural Studies at Queen's University. Her dissertation is focused on providing a posthuman account of the public: one that seeks to challenge the longstanding anthropocentrism this concept carries, while working to recognize nonhumans as political members and important contributors in the creation and maintenance of such a polity.  Her other interests include modernist literature and Joyce studies (with a specific focus on Finnegans Wake), the Arts and Crafts movement, pop surrealism, and her painting and sculpting practices.
