DrKatie Mishler

I am a Government of Ireland Enterprise Partnership Postdoctoral Fellow in collaboration with the UCD Centre for Cultural Analytics and Museum of Literature Ireland (MoLI). I research the intersection between Irish gothic writing and Dublin's urban histories using innovative digital tools and public engagement platforms.

I am Curatorial Assistant at MoLI. I promote the bilingual history of Irish writing and the diverse voices of contemporary Irish writing through the creation of innovative and engaging digital and educational programming.

My PhD, generously funded by the Irish Research Council, examines the relationship between James Joyce and Irish urban gothic writing, including Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, George Egerton, and Oscar Wilde.

I received my MA in Irish Studies, generously funded by the School of Irish Studies, from Queen's University Belfast.

I teach and have taught courses on Gothic Literature, Modern and Contemporary Irish Writing, Victorianism, and Modernism. Additionally I have expertise in teaching academic skills including composition, critical thinking, research methods, and cultural theory.

Forthcoming publications: Mapping the Irish Urban Gothic: Dublin, Belfast, London (monograph) and “‘Somewhere about the year 1794’: Temporal and Spatial Hauntings in Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu’s Gothic Dublin” (in press; Victorian Literature and Culture).
