Dr Megen de Bruin-Molé is a cultural studies scholar with a background in literary criticism, and an emphasis on popular fiction.
Her AHSS school-funded PhD research, conducted at Cardiff University, focused on the ethics and aesthetics of mashup, using the theme of monsters and the monstrous to explore how and why the twenty-first century persistently appropriates historical fictions and figures. She also holds an MA in literature and culture, and a Research MA in literary studies, both from the University of Amsterdam. You can follow her (and her research) on her blog: frankenfiction.com.
Megen is also an editor with the Critical Posthumanism Network’s Genealogy project. She was previously the central editor and social media manager for the literary organisation Poetry International, and a Project Assistant on the Changing Attitudes in Public Discourse project.
