Julian Murphet

Professor in Modern Film and Literature, Director of the Centre for Modernism Studies at University of New South Wales

Summary

My research concentrates on the interface between literature and other media, on the history of US literature, and on the ethical dimension of cinema.
My current large project is a study of the multimedia and transportational dimensions of William Faulkner's work.
I teach Modernism: Text and Screen; American Literature: Past and Present; and I contribute lectures here and there to other film and literature courses.
