Oma esittely

My research concerns contemporary experimental literature in Nordic and global contexts, read comparatively and across genres. My research combines new materialist thought emerging from continental philosophy with media studies, classical, transmedial and cybertextual narratology, textual criticism, critical cultural studies, and literary sociology.

My research clusters around three interlinked themes. The first, the poetics of experimental literature – text, structure, book object, affects – grows out of my doctoral research and examines the relationship between the history and the present of avant-garde writing, treating form as inseparable from its material carriers and affective effects. The second, the digital environments of literary practice – materiality, (inter)mediality, narrativity, platforms – asks how digital infrastructures and AI reshape the book object, the act of reading, and the narrative forms and uses available to literature. The third, contemporary authorship in a changing society – author functions, democracy, literary publicity – examines how authorial agency, literary value, and public reasoning are negotiated in a platformed literary field.
