Autorenporträt
Tessie Prakas is Assistant Professor of English at Scripps College. Her scholarship and teaching focus primarily on early modern poetry and poetics, as well as on the relationship between music and literature. Her first book, Poetic Priesthood, reads seventeenth-century devotional poetry as practicing a counter-liturgical mode of piety. She has published articles in The Journal for Early Modern Cultural Studies, the John Donne Journal, Christianity and Literature, and Gender and Song in Early Modern England (Ashgate, 2014), and she is working on a project that reads early modern literary and musical practice in the light of our current critical preoccupation with interdisciplinarity.
