Jared Richman

Research
Professor Richman teaches courses on 18th-century literature, British Romanticism, Atlantic studies, disability, and comics and graphic narrative. He has published essays on literary works of William Blake, Charlotte Smith, Anna Seward, and on late-Georgian representations of vocal disability. Professor Richman’s work has appeared in such journals as European Romantic Review, Eighteenth-Century Studies, and Eighteenth Century Theory and Interpretation. He is currently finishing a manuscript entitled “Transatlantic Realms’: British Romanticism and the Idea of America, 1780-1832,” which examines the political and cultural impact of England’s post-Revolutionary engagement with the Americas through British Romantic literary production. Professor Richman’s research has been supported by fellowships from the Library of Congress, the Lewis Walpole Library, the Pew Charitable Trusts, the American Society for 18th-Century Studies, the Folger Shakespeare Library, and most recently by the Huntington Library. His latest project traces the relationship between nascent elocutionary theories of the Enlightenment and disability in Anglo-American culture. He is also co-editing a special edition of European Romantic Review that will feature essays exploring the representation of physical and mental disability in British Romantic writing.
