#introduction
I am a #litstudies scholar with expertise in #Ottoman and #Turkish #literatures. My previous research tackled representations of Ottoman #masculinities in early twentieth-century erotic #fiction, local forms of knowledge production, and memory-making practices. Currently, I work on #literary #gerontology in #nonWestern contexts.
