VII. Briefly describe your research interests, including a
tentative plan for your
dissertation project.(Attach additional sheet if necessary)
My research interest lies in the genre of Southern Literature. I
believe that Southern Literatureis much more rich and complex than
is often ascribed, and should be examined as such. Toooften, it is
labeled as a type of regionalism, its tropes and topics listed off
as on a checklist.Southern Literature and its authors embody much
more than a subgenre of regionalist literature. Ihope to further my
research and studies into the nuances and intricacies of such
literature. I havespent much of my research focusing on Anne Tyler
as a southern writer, but I would like towiden my perspective a bit
and perhaps find another author with which to compare their
works,similarities, and methods within the scope of Southern
literature. This is ultimately the directionI wish to take my
dissertation in.
VIII. CERTIFICATIONI certify the information provided on this
application is true and complete. I will use thefellowship funds
