Sex and the Body Politic: Donald E. Hall

Donald E. Hall

Donald E. Hall is the Chair of the Department of English at California State University, Northridge. His interests lie in Victorian Literature, Gay and Lesbian Studies, Children's and Adolescent Literature, and Critical Theory. Hall examines sexuality and identity, complicating definitions of masculinity and femininity, and contributing to interrogations of bisexual identity. Additionally, Hall has explored issues of academic professionalism and graduate student training.

Hall’s books include Queer Theories (2003), Academic Self: An Owner's Manual (2002), Literary and Cultural Theory: From Basic Principles to Advanced Applications (2001), and Fixing Patriarchy: Feminism and Mid-Victorian Male Novelists (1996). He has also edited Professions: Conversations on the Future of Literary and Cultural Studies (2001), Representing Bisexualities: Subjects and Cultures of Fluid Desire (with Maria Pramaggiore, 1996), and Muscular Christianity: Embodying the Victorian Age (1994).

Hall’s Subjectivity, part of Routledge’s New Critical Idiom series, will be published in 2004.
