Research interests
Dr. Holland is curious about how experiments in born-digital scholarship can enrich our understandings of authors’ networks and the production and reception of literary texts over time. Currently, she is working with colleagues from Canada, the US and England on a monograph series, A Feminist Literary History of Women’s Writing in the British Isles: The Orlando Volumes . Using digital tools and data to develop long-form narrative arguments about literature and gender, they are drawing from Orlando: Women’s Writing in the British Isles from the Beginnings to the Present (Cambridge University Press, 2006), a textbase of collaboratively-authored and -encoded scholarship on women’s writing and its conditions of possibility. This work is related closely to her teaching at MacEwan, including such courses as ENGL 368: Queer Women’s Writing of the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries, GEND 419: Gender and Technology, and GEND 219: Feminist Theories and Foundations, as well as her support of students’ honours theses on varied aspects of women’s writing. | Feminist literary history, twentieth-century literature and culture, collaborative digital scholarship, text encoding
