Christopher Fitter
Professor
Chris Fitter received his D.Phil. from St. John’s College, Oxford in 1989, and has given guest seminars at Columbia, Oxford and Yale. His first book, Poetry, Space, Landscape: Toward a New Theory (Cambridge: 1995) discussed representations of the natural world from Homer to Milton in literature, art, and formal thought, and suggested some foundational sociological principles behind the conceptualization of nature as landscape. Radical Shakespeare: Politics and Stagecraft in the Early Career (Routledge: 2012) placed Shakespeare’s early plays within contexts of political opposition and debate normally overlooked in the field, arguing for the playwright’s alignment with popular sufferings and populist politics. Following this he edited the pioneering volume Shakespeare and the Politics of Commoners: Digesting the New Social History (Oxford, 2017), which introduces to Shakespeare studies the political culture, often skeptical and combative, of the mass of ordinary commoners in contemporary England. His current book, nearly complete, is Activist Shakespeare: Politics and Stagecraft in the Second Tetralogy and King Lear, which examines these dramas as further examples of Shakespeare’s risk-taking involvement in hot political topics of those years. He has published nearly twenty essays and book chapters, along with many reviews.

Aaron Hostetter
Associate Professor
Aaron Hostetter specializes in Old and Middle English literature and culture. His book, Political Appetites: Food in Medieval English Literature, explores the political aspects of the representation of eating and cooking in the medieval English romance from the tenth to the fifteenth centuries, and will be published in October 2017. He has published articles in The Journal of English and Germanic Philology (2011), e-Humanista (2013), New Medieval Literatures (2017), and Studies in Philology (2017), as well as delivered papers on subjects including Piers Plowman, Middle English incest narratives, and medieval romance. He is also the founder and translator of the Anglo-Saxon Narrative Poetry Project (2007-present), an ambitious re-working of extant Old English poetry into modern English verse. His current teaching interests include Chaucer and other Ricardian poetry, medieval romance, Beowulf and other Anglo-Saxon literature, the literature of heroism and travel, translations and translation theory, Marxist and cultural theories of consumption, materialism (New and otherwise), and global medieval literatures. He is currently planning two new books: the first is a set of essays on practical approaches to teaching Beowulf in secondary and university classrooms; the second is an examination of the deadly sin of Avarice (the excessive desire for material objects) across a swath of English literary history from the Anglo-Saxons to the Jacobean era.
