My research focuses on 19th-century novels from Russia, Western Europe, and the United States. 我特别感兴趣的是现代小说与其他文化生产领域的交集,包括医学、视觉艺术和宗教。 I have published two books: The Real and The Sacred: Picturing Jesus in Nineteenth-Century Fiction (University of Michigan Press, 2014); and Alter Icons: The Russian Icon and Modernity (Penn State Press, 2010). My publications include articles on Chekhov and medicine as well as articles and book chapters on Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Proust, Vasily Pelenov, and Lew Wallace.
