About
Dr. Sharae Deckard is a permanent Lecturer (equivalent to Assistant Professor) in the School of English, University College Dublin. She was previously educated in the UK, where she completed her PhD at the University of Warwick under Benita Parry. Her monograph, recently published by Routledge, is entitled Paradise Discourse, Imperialism, and Globalization: Exploited Eden and makes a comparative study of the relation between paradise myths and the ideologies and economies of colonialism and neo-imperialism in literature from East Africa, Sri Lanka, and Latin America.
Her current research interests include postcolonial literature and the environment, world-systems approaches to comparativism, and Indian Ocean literatures and slave-trade. She has a number of articles forthcoming on postcolonial ecology and writers including Chenjerai Hove, Mia Couto, and Rana Dasgupta. She is also involved with a collective based at Warwick investigating the aesthetics of peripheral modernity.
