Graduate student currently working on a doctorate degree in the Department of English at Binghamton University.  Literary interests lie in early British Modernism, particularly as it imbricates ecocriticism and cultural materialism.  Pursuing a dissertation, provisionally titled “Radical Ontology in the Classroom”, that theorizes the position of the teacher within the space of the classroom as s/he acts with and upon the students.  Feel free to contact me by email at aclayto1(at)binghamton.edu.
