Molly Anne Rothenberg, associate professor, received her doctorate from the University of California at Irvine in Comparative Literature and Critical Theory.  She is also a nationally certified, practicing adult psychoanalyst.  Her teaching and scholarly interests include British literature (18th and 19th century), gender and sexuality studies, post-Freudian psychoanalytic theory, social change theory, and world literature.  She has published Re-Thinking Blake’s Textuality (1993) and Perversion and the Social Relation (coedited with Dennis Foster and Slavoj Zizek, 2003).  Her most recent book, The Cause in Question:  Social Change Theory and the Problem of Excess, is in review.  She has published in Critical Inquiry, ELH, Eighteenth-Century Studies, The Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association, and other significant journals.  Her two current projects include an exploration of the uses of working-class popular performance and the discourse of diaspora in transatlantic novels and drama, and a study of theories of social relationality in British moral and political philosophy and literature which contravene emphases on sympathy as the fundamental social bond.  At present, she serves as Director of Graduate Studies and sits on the Executive Board of the World Literature Program.
