So I've even managed to migrate over to hcommons.social from lingo.lol. It was a lovely instance, but I quickly became aware that I'm probably not a true philologist (though I might dabble), I'm indeed a #LitStudies scholar.
So here is my re-introduction. I am a Lecturer (=Asst.Prof in North America) in #Hindi at #ANU (The Australian National University). I also serve as the Deputy-Director of #SARI (the South Asia Research Institute).
I work on #poetry #music #gender & #memory in the premodern regional courts of Eastern #SouthAsia in #Hindi-Urdu #Maithili #Bengali #Sanskrit and #Apabhramsha.
I am increasingly working on community-oriented practices of #digitalhumanities while working with manuscripts. I do that stuff over on ANUBhasha (www.anubhasha.org) that I co-run.
I'm also a passionate Urbanist who is interested in the structures (both physical and social) that make cities the best place to live.
