Daniel Williams

I am an Assistant Professor of Literature at Bard College. My work is principally about 19th-century British literature, intellectual history, and the history of science. I'm also interested in the literature of South Africa (and transnational Anglophone writing more generally), especially with respect to issues in animal ethics and the environmental humanities. 

Before coming to Bard, I was Lecturer in English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University and a Junior Fellow at the Society of Fellows, Harvard University.

With Jacob Risinger (Ohio State University), I am also co-editor of the Nineteenth-Century Networks section of Literature Compass.
