Post-doctoral Associate

Allison Bernard is a specialist in Ming-Qing Chinese literature, whose work focuses on drama, print and theatrical cultures, and intersections between literature and history. She is particularly interested in how theater is used as a mode of historiography — a development she charts in her in-progress book project on the uses of meta-theater in and around Kong Shangren’s Taohua shan (The Peach Blossom Fan).
