Bridget Draxler<\/span><\/h3>\n

Bridget Draxler has been developing Austen-themed public digital humanities projects since 2009. She participated in the NEH seminar \u201cJane Austen and Her Contemporaries\u201d in 2012, was a research fellow at Chawton House Library in 2011, and co-edited a 2014 special issue of Persuasions On-Line about teaching Austen, to which she contributed an article on using archival research and digital tools in the undergraduate classroom to teach Austen. Her interest in the public digital humanities stems from experiences as a HASTAC Scholar, a PAGE Fellow for Imagining America, and a graduate fellow in the Obermann Graduate Institute on Engagement and the Academy. She currently works at her alma mater, St. Olaf College, where she enjoys mentoring students as readers, writers, and thinkers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Joseph Putnam '18<\/span><\/h3>\n

Joseph Putnam will graduate from St. Olaf College in 2018 with a B.A. in English and American Studies. He studies material culture,\u00a0 mid-nineteenth-century U.S. literature, postcolonial literature of the Americas, literary theory, and ecocriticism\/the environmental humanities. Approaching Austen from a standpoint that considers the relationships between literature, culture, and colonialism, he is interested in interrogating the complex ways Austen's texts respond to British imperialism throughout the Indian subcontinent and the Atlantic world.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>
