began teaching at Truman in Fall 2006,
focusing on courses in methods of English instruction and
Romantic/Victorian literature.
Paul’s interests include “global educational systems and
their relationships to pedagogical structures as well as psycho-social
dynamics.” He is “also interested in the relationship between psychoanalytic
discourse and postmodernism in English and French literature of the
nineteenth century.”
Paul says: “I grew up in Saint Louis,
married to Michele and have one daughter Alexandria. Give me a good book and a blizzard
and I’m happy. I also enjoy
chess and cricket.”
