Caresse John, Assistant Professor of English, joined the Belmont English Department in 2008. She attended Millikin University in Illinois for her B.A. and received her M.A. from Northern Illinois University (where the snow days are nothing like those in Tennessee). After a year in Boston, she returned to Northern to receive her Ph.D. in American Literature and a Graduate Studies Certificate in Women's Studies. She teaches courses in American Literature, Twentieth-Century Poetry, Gender Studies, and Rhetoric and Composition. Dr. John's research interests grow out of the work she did in her dissertation, which examines the narrative techniques of American women writers through a sociohistorical lens, combining feminist literary theory, narratology, and standpoint theory. A former music major in her undergraduate career, she feels quite at home at Belmont. She spends her spare time with her children, husband and books. Dr. Caresse John |
